May Morrissey is a multi-award-winning children’s picture book author, devoted mom, and nurse anesthetist by trade. Her writing journey began when her son was diagnosed with ADHD, a moment that forever changed how she understood his world and how the world understood him. Driven by a deep desire to help her son feel seen, heard, and valued, May began creating stories that celebrate the energy, challenges, and superpowers of neurodivergent children.

Her debut book, Ben T. Finnigan’s Awesome ADHD Superpowers, has earned the Literary Titan Award for Children’s Books, the Firebird Book Award for Neurodiversity, the Book Fest Award in the Juvenile Fiction category, and finalist recognition from the American Book Fest Best Book Awards.
