Happy 95th Birthday, Beverly Cleary!!!!

To help celebrate Beverly Cleary's 95th birthday, Huffington Post invited me to write an essay about this amazing women, her influence on my career, and what she means to the world.



As a huge fan of her books, it was an honor to write this piece . . .





Here's how it begins . . .
