Laura Kvasnosky was born on January 27, 1951 in Sacramento, California, United States, into the family of Harvey C. and Helen (McDonald) McGee. She grew up as one of five children in a newspaper family that provided the grist for many of her stories as a noted children’s writer and illustrator.
In 1973 Laura received Bachelor of Arts at Occidental College. In 1994 she studied writing at Centum in Port Townsend, Washington, United States. Moreover, she studied illustration at Seattle’s School of Visual Concepts in Seattle, Washington, United States.
Laura began her work career at the age of eight, sharpening pencils for her editor-father. Over the years she contributed in the advertising and editorial departments of his newspaper too. When her children were small, she created over 10,000 Christmas ornaments in her kitchen. Then, in 1980, she started her own graphic design firm. She decided to go for a lifelong dream of publishing a children’s book when she turned forty.
Kvasnosky’s first published works for children were the self-illustrated board books "One, Two, Three, Play with Me" and "Pink, Red, Blue, What are You?", published in 1994. Another of Kvasnosky’s self-illustrated books for preschoolers. "See You Later, Alligator", features a group of young reptiles whose parents begin the day by dropping them off at River Bottom School. Kvasnosky has also written picture books for independent readers.
Laura describes herself as “Northwest pantheist.”
Laura is a bookworm.
On December 16, 1972 Laura married a public relations executive John Kvasnosky, with whom she has two children: Timothy John and Noelle Helen Kvasnosky.
