Charlotte Sullivan
will discuss her creative process on her current picture book project, a
biography of poet and rights activist Carl Sandburg. How does an artist use
research to tell a good story? How does one find the heartbeat in a thousand
facts? How does one convey a life story in a few hundred words? If you’ve every
wondered how picture books are made or if you’re a creative writer yourself, be
sure to stop by! (Bring a notebook…you might even do a little writing yourself!)
Charlotte Sullivan's
picture book work has received a Minnesota State Arts Board Artist Initiative
Grant, a Metro Regional Arts Council Next Step Fund Grant, an InterMedia Arts
Beyond the Pure Fellowship Grant, and a Loft Literary Center Shabo Picture Book
Award. She has hosted KFAI's Write On! Radio program and served as an educator
for nearly two decades, specializing in children's literature and creative
writing. She taught English at Normandale Community College from 2007-2014 and
served as the Visiting Scholar in Children’s Literature in 2011-2012.
