Authors and Artists for Young Adults

High school and junior high school students will find Authors & artists for young adults (AAYA) illuminating and informative because it’s written especially for them and covers the personalities they find most interesting. Its inviting photos, book covers, movie stills, and other graphics invite browsing and create additional interest in the text. Published biannually, each volume contains 20-25 entries providing in-depth coverage of artists and authors of various genres and from all over the world. Entries contain author’s name, birthdate, eduation, career information, positions held, works and more. Lengthy sidelights give readers unique insight into the author’s life and career.
