Waves of Light

Informationen zum Autor Naomi Kinsman has always dreamed of plunging into a fiction world, like Lucy does in Voyage of the Dawn Treader . In Naomi’s first career, acting and directing for the theater, this dream was inches from her reach.

Naomi is the author of the 2009 Moonbeam Gold Medal winner, Spilled Ink , and she has written and directed over 50 plays for young audiences. She lives in Northern California with her husband and identically colored pets: a tuxedo cat and a Portuguese water dog.
