Thomas Lynch's works span decades and encompass essays, poetry, and short stories. He has dedicated much of his life to the mortuary sciences, taking over his family's funeral home in Michigan in the 1970s, and giving lectures at numerous universities. Though he has stepped away from his work as a mortician, his experiences and insights on death, life, and grief are consistently present across his writing, along with reflections on ancestry and his ancestral home in Ireland. His work has appeared in The Atlantic, The New Yorker, The Paris Review, The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Irish Times and other publications, as well as two film documentaries. 

Thomas Lynch has also been a longtime supporter of the literary arts. He founded the Lynch and Sons Fund for the Arts in 2016 to financially support a range of fine arts projects and writing residencies. This fund awarded Bajo el Sol Gallery/The Gri Gri Project with the 2023 Moveen Prize in Poetry for its stewardship of the Rhyme and Lime poetry open-mic, and Rhyme and Lime's founder Jamaica Hamilton received the 2021 Moveen Prize in Poetry.
