She was drawn to Garrett Morgan's story after seeing him described in an anthology of African American inventors as the only "hero-inventor" among them. The Unstoppable Garrett Morgan is her first picture book. Joan and her husband live in Exeter, New Hampshire. You can visit her online at joandiciccowriter.com.
