As the author of more than 60 books for readers of all ages, Catherine Nichols has written on a wide variety of topics, including art, animals, and ASL. And that's just the A's! When not writing and editing, she teaches fiction writing and provides editorial services to aspiring writers. She lives in the Philadelphia area with her husband and their much pampered pug.
