Author Bio
Ellen Raskin
Illustrator and author Ellen Raskin graduated from the University of Wisconsin and moved to New York City, where she began a career as a freelance artist. Raskin's first foray into the world of children's literature was as an illustrator of works by other authors. The first book she both wrote and illustrated was 1966's NOTHING EVER HAPPENS ON MY BLOCK. The later part of her career brought her from illustrating picture books to writing novels for middle readers. These novels featured wordplay, mystery, and strange and amusing characters. Her final work, the fascinating and unusual mystery THE WESTING GAME, won the 1979 Newbery Medal.
