Katherine Robinson is a Minnesota native with a passion for leadership in furthering diversity in literature and media. She takes a special interest in educating children, student leadership, and writing. Being one of the few African American children in her school growing up, she often felt isolated from her peers. One of the core ways in which she was able to feel represented was in the diversity of entertainment and literary resources afforded to her by her parents. She is now committed to adding to the growing work of diverse literature available for children of color to see themselves both represented and appreciated.
