M. G. King
Location: Houston, Texas
M. G. King grew up in southern Indiana on the Ohio River. She always wanted to be like the town’s librarian, who drove a rusty bookmobile through snow and chased off neighborhood bullies so children could check out her books. Although King hasn’t found anyone willing to let her drive their bookmobile yet, she’s held lots of other jobs, including camp counselor, ESL teacher in Japan, and registered nurse in ICU, transplant, and surgical recovery.
King lives in a suburb of Houston with her husband, two sons, and a Labrador who sheds a lot. She often visits her family’s farm in central Texas, and admires Lockhart’s beautiful hundred-year-old library with her feet planted firmly on the ground.Latest Books
