Ellen Schecter

3.9/5 ( ratings)
ELLEN SCHECTER has been published widely in print and on the web. Many of her books are for children, and her first novel, The Big Idea [Hyperion] won the Américas Award for Children’s and Young Adult Literature. She’s written and collaborated on multiple-award-winning TV for PBS, Disney, CBS, and the Discovery Channel. Not bad for someone who never grew up.

Excepts from her new memoir, Fierce Joy, have been published online on ducts.org, Lilith magazine, and the University of Virginia Medical Arts Journal.

Check out the great reviews of her latest book, FIERCE JOY, at faboverfify: best memoirs of the year so far [faboverfifty.com/bookblog/2012/04]; New York Review of Books: Laura Schultz, in the New York Journal of Books:
“Ellen Schecter creates a visual symphony with her extraordinary command of the unique language of the soul.”
In “Diagnosis Is Not Death,” a review in Tablet by Sarah Ivry: “Illness does not always rob us of our spirit …and Schecter…finds in Judaism a sense of nurturing that… she didn’t realize she craved….I not only want to make peace with my illness, I want to sanctify it."
