Bernard Waber

Bernard Waber entered college thinking that art and writing were too frivolous to consider as a serious career. He was majoring in finance until World War II interrupted and the army took him away from his studies. When he returned, he enrolled in the Philadelphia College of Art, where he says he found true joy.

He moved to New York where he began to raise a family. He was captivated by children's books and as of 1961, that has been his primary interest. Whenever someone viewed his portfolio, they told him his drawings had appeal to children. So he began writing children's tales and hasn't stopped since.
