KAREN HENRY CLARK, as a toddler, wrote a story with a crayon on the living room wall. Recognizing her passion, her father supplied paper, and her mother took her to the public library every week. Her writing ambition was sealed. Her writing for adults continues on her blog, Margin Notes, where she examines ordinary moments that reveal simple truth and stunning magic at www.KarenHenryClark.com.
  

SHERYL MURRAY grew up near Chicago in a rambunctious family of eight kids. Storytelling was an everyday thing at her house: whether it was a family backyard theatrical production, making up bedtime stories for her younger brothers or convincing her mom that she couldn’t possibly have been the one who drew on the baby. She was also the family artist, drawing on everything and everyone. Sheryl now focuses her love for drawing and visual storytelling on picture books. She lives in Portland, Oregon.
