Shirley
Waisman

I am a freelance illustrator with over 80 published picture books.
Currently, I serve as the Illustrator Coordinator for my local chapter of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI).
 

I hold a BA in Art and Education from Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, as well as an MA in Education.
Early in my career, I was honored with a two-year research scholarship from Kyushu University to explore Japanese children's book illustration.

I’m currently developing my own stories as a writer-illustrator, and hope to find
a home for them in the publishing world soon.
