I strongly recommend Padma Venkatraman. She has an amazing story; she's a talented writer; her presentation was very interesting.

Hello!

Our school would like to bring in an author or two next year.  We are hoping to find someone from the CT/RI/MA area, as to avoid transportation/accommodation issues, someone who is not too pricey, and someone who is engaging for both teens & adults. I know that is a lot of requests rolled int one, but thought some of you may have some suggestions.  If you do, I'd love if you sent them my way!!

Thanks in advance for your help!! 

Take care,
