Jimmy Matejek-Morris

Jimmy Matejek-Morris grew up in New Jersey as the middle child of five kids. He enjoys musical theater, Muppets, hiking, ice cream, and action figures. He currently lives in Massachusetts, with his husband, Scott, and a very well-dressed poodle-Pomeranian named Rudy. When he is not writing books and screenplays for kids and young adults, you can find Jimmy peeking through the blinds in hopes of spotting baby bunnies or exclaiming "FREE SEED" so the hungry birds know he has remembered to fill the feeder.

He has a BA in Film and English from Cornell University and an MFA in Writing for Children from Simmons College.
