Laurel Lorenzini, a native of Ridgefield, now resides in Woodbridge with her loving spouse, two imaginative daughters, and their playful pup, Bonnie. Growing up in a bustling household with eight siblings, she learned early on that everyone has something unique to offer the world.
Before pursuing her passion for writing, Laurel served six years in the Air Force as an air traffic controller and later earned her law degree. Now a children’s book author, she finds joy in exploring themes of acceptance, self-worth, imagination, and the power of cooperation in her stories. She strongly believes in the importance and potential of children and strives to reflect that in her work.
One of her greatest pleasures is visiting schools to connect with young readers. Learn more about Laurel at laurellorenzini.com or follow her on Instagram at @laurel.lorenzini. Her books are available for purchase at Books on the Common and on Amazon.•
