Kerry McQuaide

I am a writer/illustrator in New York’s Hudson Valley. I studied in London at Chelsea School of Art and Design, graduated from Parsons School of Design, and now I serve as the Regional Advisor for SCBWI Eastern New York.

I’m dyslexic, but with the help of spellcheck, I co-moderate our SCBWI social media and I have launched our READ LOCAL program—networking local authors with librarians, booksellers, and readers in our region.

I have been a website designer, a bookkeeper, and a business consultant, but my favorite job title is “Aunt K” to five adorable nieces and nephews.
