Biography

Lisa Martin

Lisa Martin grew up in New Orleans and earned graduate degrees in business, met her husband Roger in Texas, and taught accounting to college sophomores until their sons came along.  She became very active in their school community and read lots of books with them, studying and eventually trying her hand at children’s poetry and prose.  Her boys were 10 and 8 when my aunt, Valerie Martin (by then a celebrated author of adult fiction) suggested we collaborate on a children’s book, which was a very happy stroke of luck for me.  ANTON AND CECIL: CATS AT SEA is her first published novel.
