About the author
Vita Murrow is a writer, artist, and mom. Born in central India, she grew up in Minneapolis, MN. Growing up, her modern family constellation made her acutely aware of the need for diverse and inclusive media for kids. Her background as an educator cemented the idea that all children have the right to see their lives mirrored and to feel connected to the media they enjoy. This belief has fueled her career as a champion of children and children's literature, and as a storyteller in a variety of mediums. Vita’s recent feminist fairy tale retellings “High Five to the Hero" & "Power to the Princess” were celebrated as "Brilliant." By Kirkus Reviews.
Vita previously directed a literacy centered school partnership program in Boston, served as an elementary educator in Seattle and New York City and has been an American Sign Language interpreter. She earned an M.S Ed in Education and Teaching Literacy from the Bank Street College of Education in New York City, as well as a BFA in Photography and Video from Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, WA.
A career highlight for Vita was meeting her hero, Cookie Monster, while interning at the Sesame Workshop.
