Erin YunErin Yun is the author of the bestselling AAPI middle-grade series Pippa Park, a reimagining of Great Expectations that includes two titles: Pippa Park Raises Her Game and Pippa Park Crush at First Sight. She received her A in English from New York University and her Masters in Creative Writing from Cambridge. While at NYU, she served as president of the policy debate team- an experience that proved invaluable when she later worked as the debate consultant for the Tony-nominated Best Play on Broadway, What the Constitution Means to Me.

Erin Yun was also selected by the nonprofit Every Child a Reader to appear on a Get Caught Reading poster. A sought-after speaker, she has led her interactive writing workshop-teaching kids how to craft retellings-both in person and virtually at schools, libraries, and bookstores. People can tell she grew up in Texas by how often she says "y'all." And yes-she really did play basketball as a middle grader!
