It wasn't until she was in her 30's that Connie Nordhielm Wooldridge knew for sure that she was a writer. Before that, she tried her hand at a lot of different things.
She spent a college year studying Greek culture and archeology in Athens. She worked as a flight attendant for American Airlines. She taught first grade at an English-speaking school in Seoul, Korea. She received a masters degree in education and library science from the University of Chicago. And she worked as a school librarian.
Nothing was as exciting as finally sitting down to write and seeing her stories begin to appear in the pages of Highlights for Children and Cricket. Her first picture book, Wicked Jack, rolled off the press in 1995. It received starred reviews in School Library Journal, the Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, and Kirkus Reviews and was awarded the Irma S. and James H, Black Award and the North Carolina Junior Book Award.
