Author Biography

David Wiesner

David Wiesner

David Wiesner studied at the Rhode Island School of Design where Tom Sgouros and David Macaulay not only taught him the fundamentals of drawing and painting, but fostered his imaginative spirit. Since graduating from art school, Mr. Wiesner has published more than ten award-winning books. Two of his books were Caldecott Honor books, and he received the 1992 Caldecott Medal for Tuesday and the 2002 Caldecott Medal for The Three Pigs (Clarion Books, 2001). An exhibit of his original artwork, Seeing the Story, toured the United States in 2000 and 2001. David Wiesner lives in Wisconsin.
