Lorin Driggs is a children’s author who has written books on many topics, including true stories of individuals who made a positive impact on achieving freedom for all in the United States, the interesting and unique characteristics of different regions in the United States, amusement parks in America, amazing plants that survive in truly harsh conditions, and fantastic landmarks around the world. She also wrote about her own experience as a survivor of the attack on the World Trade Center in New York City on September 11, 2001.

Besides writing and creating things for children and teachers, Lorin loves dogs, gardening, observing all the interesting wild animals and plants in nature, volunteering at a wild bird rescue and rehabilitation center, riding her bike, and going to live theater and the movies. She currently lives with her wife in Sarasota, Florida, but who knows where they might live next!
