They should write her through the e-mail listed on her official web site at: http://www.loislowry.com/ I've always felt that I was fortunate to have been born the middle child of three. My older sister, Helen, was very much like our mother: gentle, family-oriented, eager to please. Little brother Jon was the only boy and had interests that he shared with our father; together they were always working on electric trains and erector sets, and later, they always seemed to have their heads under the raised hood of a car. That left me in-between, and exactly where I wanted to be: on my own. I was a solitary child who lived in the world of books and my own imagination. Because my father was a career military officeran army dentistI lived all over the world. I was born in Hawaii, moved from there to New York, spent the years of World War II in my mother's Pennsylvania hometown, and from there went to Tokyo when I was eleven. High school was back in New York City, but by the time I went to college (Brown University in Rhode Island), my family was living in Washington, D.C..

It's fun to write about Lois Lowry but not as much fun as it is to be with her. She's a witty, clever, interesting woman with lots of facets to her life. She's a great conversationalist, she knits, is an avid and eclectic reader and movie-goer, and besides that, she likes to play bridge and garden. She's an excellent cook and her cookbook collection is enormous and varied. Her home is full of bookshelves which, of course, are full of books and, since she has a great need for order, her books are carefully arranged with her own rather eccentric system with no apologies to Dewey.

LOWRY, LOIS
March 20, 1937-
Author I was born in 1937, in Honolulu, Hawaii. Occasionally that prompts someone to say, "Gee, you don't look Hawaiian." That is the kind of person I drift away from at cocktail parties. My father was a career army officer, so like all army brats I had no real home, but moved from place to place during my growing-up years. I went through junior high school in Tokyo (and gee, I don't look Japanese, either), and still remember a few phrases in that language, which I spoke fairly well at age twelve. I remember things like "Where is the bathroom" and "My left leg hurts," which will come in handy if I am ever in an accident in Yokohama, at least if the accident leaves me with a sprained knee and a bruised kidney. I went to Brown University at seventeen to major in writing, and left there at nineteen to get married, this being the fifties when romance and domesticity took precedence over literacy. The marriage did not last, but the four childrennow growndid, and their escapades during childhood and adolesence have provided me with enough material to write books for young people for countless years to come. I began writing when they were kids, after going back to get my college degree, so there were a number of years when there was a well-worn path between the typewriter and the washing machine. The first money I ever earned went to hire a housekeeper, and whenever I am asked if there was any one person who influenced my career, I make a short speech of tribute to a Czechoslovakian woman named Marga, who for years dealt with my children's lost sneakers and vacuumed around a soporific Newfoundland dog.

LEARNING ABOUT LOIS LOWRY
Compiled by: Toni DiNuzzo, Joan Moran, Heidi Pedersen, and Chris Yurgelonis with Kay E. Vandergrift in Young Adult Literature
BIOGRAPHY
Lois Lowry was born March 20, 1937 in Hawaii to Robert and Katharine Hammersberg. Her father was an Army dentist and the family lived all over the world. She attended Brown University, but left after her sophomore year to get married and raise a family of four children. They settled in Maine, where she returned to college and received her degree from the University of Southern Maine. Lois Lowry fulfilled a childhood dream when she began writing in the mid-1970's. Now divorced, she lives in West Cambridge with her dog, Bandit, and spends weekends in her 19th century farmhouse in New Hampshire.
ABOUT HER WRITING
Lois Lowry, author of over 20 novels and winner of the Newbery Medal twice, is a woman to be taken seriously. This native of Hawaii has become a favorite of both children and young adults. She has tackled a number of topics in her literature including adoption, mental illness, cancer, the Holocaust and futuristic societies. Whatever the theme, Lowry portrays realistic life experiences to her audience. In her books, Lois Lowry throws her characters and readers into many thought-provoking situations. The contemporary young adult reader is compelled to confront society with all of its imperfections. Lois Lowry told

Kids always ask what inspired me to write a particular book or how did I get an idea for a particular book, and often it's very easy to answer that because books, like the Anastasia books, come from a specific thing, some little event triggers an idea. But a book like The Giver is a much more complicated book and therefore it comes from much more complicated placesand many of them are probably things that I don't even recognize myself anymore, if I ever did. So it's not an easy question to answer.
I will say that the whole concept of memory is one that interests me a great deal. I'm not sure why that is, but I've always been fascinated by the thought of what memory is and what it does and how it works and what we learn from it. And so I think probably that interest of my own and that particular subject was the origin, one of many, of
