Mary Ann Hoberman is an American author of over 30 children’s books.
Hoberman co-founded a children’s theatre group called “The Pocket People”, as well as a group that performed dramatized poetry readings called “Women’s Voice” before she published her first book, All My Shoes Come in Twos, in 1957. Many of Hoberman’s books have been reviewed in multiple Academic Journals, Magazines, and Trade Publications. From elementary to college level, Hoberman has visited schools and libraries throughout the country to teach literature and writing. One of Hoberman’s main concerns is literacy, which she furthers not only through her volunteer work with Literacy Volunteers of America, but also through her You Read to Me, I’ll Read to You series. In 2003, Hoberman was named the second US Children’s Poet Laureate (now called the Young People’s Poet Laureate) by the Poetry Foundation, where she served from 2008 to 2011. Hoberman currently lives in Greenwich, Connecticut and has four children and five grandchildren with her husband Norman. - From Wikipedia
