Judith Viorst
"I think reading is one of the central pleasures of existence-- it opens up the heart, the mind and the soul. To celebrate reading-- to encourage it-- is a glorious thing to do."
Judith Viorst will appear in the Children's Pavilion. In addition to writing award-winning children’s books, she has worked as a garment district model, a therapist, and a magazine editor. She is a New York Times best-selling author who has written science, poetry, adult fiction and nonfiction books as well as three musicals.
Listen to our discussion with Judith Viorst as she talks about some of her books, including “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” and “Super Completely and Totally the Messiest.”
