Author Biography

In 1944, Donald Gardner asked a class of 22 second graders to complete the sentence, 'All I want for Christmas is ... ' and then 'began smiling as he heard 16 of them lisping wishes without the help of one or both front teeth' (LA Times, 2004). This inspired him to write the song! Illustrator Katz Cowley is a painter, assemblage sculptor, singer songwriter and passionate facilitator of creativity workshops for all ages and levels from the petrified and the inquisitive to the outrageously playful.
