Tricia Tusa 

was born in 1960, as a baby, years ago, in the swampy parts of Texas. Having lived in NYC as a young woman and New Mexico as an older one, Tricia now resides somewhere deep in a northeastern corner of the U.S.

Tricia has illustrated over 40 books for children - ten of which she both wrote and illustrated. She is proud to have received numerous book awards and honors.

In addition, Tricia illustrates for a variety of publications and magazines, including book jacket covers.

Forever seeking inspiration, as the photo indicates, Tricia is always interested in more freelance work. She can be reached at triciatusa9@gmail.com
