Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day by Sally Lee
Martin Luther King Jr. led the American civil rights movement in the mid-1900s. His holiday honors this man who continues to inspire Americans to work toward equality more than 50 years after his death. Readers will learn about Martin Luther King Jr., the holiday named for him, and how they can continue to promote and celebrate equality today.
Award-winning author, Sally O. Lee earned her BA in Studio Art and Art History (with distinction) from Colby College and then went on to study graphic design and painting in Boston (Art Institute of Boston) and in New York City (New York Studio School). She has had several shows of her work and received an art grant from The Massachusetts Institute of Technology to conceive and create a series of paintings, and from this came her 2002 exhibition- A Journey Into Abstraction. Some of Ms. Lee's paintings are in various private collections in the US. In recent years, Ms. Lee has begun to write and illustrate children's books. Some of them deal with the struggles of living with some form of handicap...or, as the author prefers to call it, imperfection. Many of her illustrations have been published and she has earned both academic and public recognition for her important work in children's books. She has had illustrations published in Worldlink Magazine, IEEE Magazine, and several other publications. Sally lives and works in Massachusetts with her cat, Dominic. She has written and illustrated over 30 books for children. Sally Lee writes My children's books are an extension of my work as a painter. Writing is a new addition for me, and I am enjoying it very much. And creating the illustrations is a perfect way to continue my painting in a new direction and a nice way to complement my writing. I hope to write and illustrate many more. Ms. Lee has won The Pinnacle Book Achievement Award (4 times) and The Family Choice Award (3 times).
