Author Information

Ryan Rae Harbuck's award-winning debut memoir When I Grow Up I Want to Be a Chair offers a keen look into her life after a spinal cord injury in her teens made her a wheelchair user. She’s on a mission to change the narrative of disability, one word at a time. Born and raised in Denver, Colorado, USA, Ryan has been a teacher, coach, and a mentor, but likes being Mom the most. Barry Lee is an illustrator and writer based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. They love using a bright palette and fun shapes to create characters that tell meaningful stories rooted in collective care and freedom. Beyond making art, Barry loves cooking, being in community with others, and stargazing among the trees.
