contents Following the Path Rodia, Becky Biographies Childrens Literature Authors Illustrations Picture Books Fairy Tales This article profiles Diane Stanley, an author and illustrator of children's books. Although she was studying to be a medical illustrator in graduate school, Stanley's path changed when she got married and had children. As she was raising her children, she became increasingly enamored of the colorful children's books she would check out of the library for them. Returning to a childhood dream of being an author, Stanley began as an illustrator, but has since published more than 40 children's books. She is best known for her biographies and fairy-tale retellings in picture-book format. "The decision to be a medical illustrator was made with my head," Stanley said. "The decision to become a children's author was made with my heart."
