About the Author

Phillips Brooks (1835–1893) was an American Episcopal clergyman and author, remembered as lyricist of the Christmas hymn, “O Little Town of Bethlehem.”

Lewis Henry Redner (1831–1908) was an American musician and composer of the popular Christmas carol “St. Louis,” better known as “O Little Town of Bethlehem.” 

Will Moses creates paintings that reflect the quiet beauty of this tiny community nestled close to the Vermont border. Will has developed his own folk style and become an internationally beloved artist, his art displayed in collections throughout the world, including that of the White House. His career as a children’s book illustrator began with the picture book The Legend of Sleepy Hollow in 1995. Today, Will lives and works at the Mt. Nebo Gallery in his hometown of Eagle Bridge, New York, with his wife, Sharon, and their three children.
