Eugenie Fernandes grew up in Long Island, New York. She was inspired and nurtured at an early age to become the successful artist that she is today by her father, a busy and well known comic-book illustrator who worked from his home studio. After graduating from the School of Visual Arts in New York, she began designing greeting cards and submitting stories to publishers, which led to the publication of her first book. With now more than 100 books to her credit Eugenie Fernandes has become a much admired name in the world of children's literature. Since then she has worked on several projects a year and now lays claim to over 80 books. She is most proud of Just You and Me (1993), a story she wrote that was brought to life with three-dimensional illustrations by her daughter, Kim.
Eugenie and her husband, Henry, also an illustrator, have two children, Kim and Matthew. Eugenie, who has lived in places as diverse as New York City and a thatch hut in the South Pacific, now lives and works beside a lake in Ontario.
