Ginny Neil is happiest when she has paint under her fingernails or mud between her toes. Her creative mind has led to awards both in the classroom and as a picture book author/illustrator.
In addition to being lost in a cave, kicked by a cow, crawling through Chesapeake Bay pluff mud, and sitting on a yellow jacket’s nest, her life experiences include being named a national finalist for the NEA Award for Teaching Excellence, running an Outdoor Learning Lab, teaching STEM, and living and working on a family farm with too many dogs, horses, cats, chickens, sheep, and cows to count.
Ginny’s publishing credits include articles in Highlights for Children, Nature Friend, Grit, Country, and Shenandoah Living magazines. In addition, Ginny is a columnist/illustrator/contributing editor for Blue Ridge Country Magazine and a playwright for the Christian drama service, Skit Guys. She is also the author/illustrator of the Eureka Honor Award, and Blueberry Honor Award winner: The Glorious Forest That Fire Built (Amicus Ink, August 2023).
