This is Debra’s bio: In college I studied child psychology, art and theatre. Which somehow led down a crooked path of booking stand-up comedy shows for 16 years. I love comedy and laughter in my life.
My journal and poetry writing have been consistent threads throughout my life, but it wasn’t until the birth of my son and receiving my first 35mm camera that I began to write about the poetry in the pictures I took. And that led me down a straight path to writing picture books. I have discovered many comical moments in parenting through the camera lens. Time for Bed, Baby Ted grew out of one of those snapshot moments of parenting exhaustion when our son Cole could’ve tucked my husband, Darrell into bed.Latest Books
