I'm the author of six books and a nationally-recognized public speaker on diversity and disability. My titles include the bestsellers The Story of Beautiful Girl and Riding The Bus with My Sister, which are frequent selections of book clubs and school reading programs. My work has been adapted for theater, NPR, the Lifetime Channel, and Hallmark Hall of Fame, whose adaptation of Riding The Bus With My Sister starred Rosie O' Donnell and Andie McDowell, and was directed by Anjelica Huston.
My awards include The Secretary Tommy G. Thompson Recognition Award for Contributions to the Field of Disability from the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services, and writing fellowships from the Delaware Division of the Arts, the Pennsylvania Council of the Arts, and the Ludwig Vogelstein Foundation. I'm one of the only authors to have been selected twice for the Barnes & Noble Discover New Writers Award.
I live in Wilmington, DE. For more information, please see www.rachelsimon.com.
