Conference faculty profile: Kirby Larson

Kirby’s coming to a Roundtable near you!





Kirby Larson went from history-phobe to history fanatic while writing the 2007 Newbery Honor Book, Hattie Big Sky. Her passion for historical fiction is reflected in titles such as The Fences Between UsThe Friendship Doll, as well as the sequel to Hattie Big Sky,Hattie Ever After and her two latest titles, Duke and Dash.
In 2006, Kirby began a collaboration with her good friend Mary Nethery, which
resulted in two award-winning nonfiction picture books: 
Two Bobbies: A True Story of Hurricane Katrina, Friendship and Survival and Nubs: The True Story of a Mutt, a Marine and a Miracle.
Kirby lives in Kenmore, Washington with her husband, Neil, and Winston
the Wonder Dog. When she’s not reading or writing, Kirby enjoys beach
combing, bird watching, and traveling. She owns a tiara and is not
afraid to use it!
