Meredith Steiner

Meredith is a picture book author who strives to tell authentic stories that reflect kids’ uniqueness, wonder, and magic. She sees literature as a powerful way to both share joy as well as explore and discuss important issues with children. She is an activist and advocate, passionate about equity, anti-racism, and anti-oppression work in the kidlit world and beyond. She is also a children’s librarian, and a frequent presenter on how to talk with kids about race. She loves playing board games that go on too long, making miniatures, and singing show tunes (when she’s sure no one is around). She lives in San Francisco with her two sons.
