Jody Wheeler
Jody Wheeler developed a greater than average interest in children's books at an early age, having been influenced and encouraged by her great aunt Opal Wheeler, a prolific writer of books for young readers in the 1950's. After being trained as a fine artist and art educator, Ms. Wheeler moved to Manhattan and eventually turned to the field of publishing. She worked as a design assistant/secretary at the Dial Press in the juvenile books division for two years before establishing her own freelance illustration business. Since then she has enjoyed working on a variety of projects ranging from picture books to educational texts and magazines, greeting cards to coloring books.
