Little, Brown and Company published Alan Kaufman's novel Matches in the fall of 2005. Matches has been termed an astonishing war novel by David Mamet, and Dave Eggers has said that it contains more passion than twenty other works combined. Kaufman's highly praised memoir, Jew Boy (Fromm/Farrar, Straus and Giroux), has been published in three editions in the United States and the United Kingdom, in hardback and paperback. Kaufman is also the award-winning editor of many anthologies, the most recent of which, The Outlaw Bible of American Literature, was recently featured on the cover of the New York Times Book Review. The Outlaw Bible of American Poetry and The Outlaw Bible of American Essays are the next two books in Kaufman's Outlaw anthology series. He has taught at the Academy of Art University's graduate and undergraduate schools, as well as writing workshops in San Francisco.

Salon, The Los Angeles Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, Partisan Review, and The San Francisco Examiner have all published his work. Kaufman's work has been frequently anthologized, most recently in WW Norton's Nothing Makes You Free: Essays From Holocaust Survivors Descendants. Kaufman is a PEN American Center member. Kaufman's archives and writings are housed in the University of Delaware's Special Collections Library, and he is included in the Europa Biographical Reference Series.
