Ellen Emerson White is the author of numerous books for middle grade and teen readers both under her own name and under pseudonyms. She has lived in New York City for many years, but still hankers for New England a bit. She roots for the Red Sox, even when they are not at their best, and shares her home with animals like the ones in Webster .
