The AU Writing Project will welcome nine nationally known, award-winning authors to its Spring 2021 series of virtual author talks! Join us by registering HERE. Free and open to both the AU community and members of the National Writing Project.

Author Susan Beth Pfeffer will join the AU College of Education on Feb. 22 at 6 p.m. Pfeffer’s writing career spans 35 years and 75 books. She is best-known for her series of post-apocalyptic novels, officially titled “The Life As We Knew It Series,” but often called “The Last Survivors” or “Moon Crash” series, some of which have appeared on the New York Times Bestselling List.

Pfeffer began writing stories as a child. She published her first book, Just Morgan, in 1970, when she was a senior at New York University. Her books cover the range of children’s literature from picture books to young-adult novels. They include biographies for younger readers, and both historical, such as the Portraits of Little Women series, and contemporary fiction. She also wrote a book for adults about how to write for children. About David (1980) and The Year Without Michael (1987) are two of her books that have received critical notice.
