Connie Lapallo
Connie Lapallo is the author of two novels based on the true story of colonial Jamestown's first women and children. During her research, she discovered that fifteen generations ago her grandmother Cecily had come to Jamestown in 1611 as an eleven year old. Cecily's mother Joan had come two years before that in 1609. These facts were indisputably in the records. Yet most history books said no women or children were at Jamestown. The realization that history had not only forgotten these women but even denied their existence wouldn’t let Connie go. She set out to tell these women’s story.

William Shakespeare
William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet, and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "the Bard"). His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, three long narrative poems, and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright. Shakespeare remains arguably the most influential writer in the English language, and his works continue to be studied and reinterpreted.

Beth Brower
Like many of my siblings, I would sneak out of bed, slip into the hallway, and pull my favorite books from the book closet. I read my way through the bottom shelf, then the next shelf up, and the shelf above that, until I could climb to the very top shelf, stacked two layers deep and two layers high, and read the titles of the classics. My desire to create stories grew as I was learning to read them.
