Natasha Wing was born in Milford, Connecticut and now lives in Fort Collins, Colorado. After graduating from Arizona State University she married Daniel Wing and worked in advertising for a number of years. It wasn't until 1991 that she decided to write children's books. Luckily she sold her first book within six months and has been writing children's books and articles ever since. She mostly writes picture books, but after 20 years, she is also writing middle grade novels and easy reads. Natasha Wing made The New York Times Best Seller List with her titles The Night Before Kindergarten, The Night Before First Grade, The Night Before Preschool, The Night Before Halloween and The Night… Before Thanksgiving.
