Kathleen Blasi, Children's Author

Kathleen Blasi mines stories of everyday heroes. Active in the children’s writing community, she is former Co-Director of the Rochester Children’s Book Festival, for which she received a 2015 New York State Reading Association Literacy Advocate Award. Kathleen lives with her family in Upstate New York, where, along with honing her craft, she enjoys fostering curiosity in young storytellers. 

Kathleen's upcoming release, MILO'S MOONLIGHT MISSION, celebrates the great outdoors and precious time spent with those we love. Her January 2020 release, HOSEA PLAYS ON, chronicles a day in the life of Rochester's own Hosea Taylor, a street musician who gave back to his community in a very special way.
