Ryan Van Cleave (born 1972, in Neenah, Wisconsin) is an American poet, editor, and creative writing teacher. Van Cleave was born as Ryan G Anderson. He changed his name in 2006 in tribute to his long standing World of Warcraft arena team. In 2010, he published ''Unplugged: My Journey into the Dark World of Video Game Addiction'', which was the first memoir on video game addiction; subsequently he became a popular speaker on digital media addiction and recovery at schools, conferences, and corporate events.

This book received a Gold Medal in Young Adult Literature from the Florida Book Awards and was named a Quick Pick for Reluctant Readers by the American Library Association. About writing for young audiences, Van Cleave says, "They're the best audience in the world. They read for the pure pleasure of it, and they're at a crucial point in their lives where the right book at the right time can change everything for them." ==Life== He was raised in the Chicago suburbs. He taught creative writing at a number of U.S. universities including Florida State University, the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay, the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and Clemson University.
