Julie Gribble, Founder KidLit TV

Julie Gribble produces works for children and the children’s literature community in the United States and Great Britain. While a Children’s Literature Fellow at Stony Brook Southampton, she founded KidLit TV to help children’s authors and illustrators connect with their audience by using new technologies to complement and promote their work. Julie has been nominated for two Emmy Awards and is a multi-award-winning writer, screenwriter, filmmaker, and producer. Her charming picture book, Bubblegum Princess, is based on a true story about Kate Middleton and was released on the day the first royal baby, who we now know as Prince George, arrived. Copies of the book have been donated to underprivileged children in the US and to children’s hospices in the UK.
Julie sits on the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Children’s Committee and PEN’s Children’s and Young Adult Books Committee and is a member of the National Association of Latino Independent Producers and the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators.
