Steve Light: podcast appearances and interviews

Steve Light, born on March 19, 1970, in Staten Island, New York, is an American author, storyteller, and children's book illustrator. He graduated from the Pratt Institute and studied with David J. Passalcqua. Light began storytelling while teaching at West Side Montessori in Manhattan, where he developed his own storytelling device called 'storyboxes.' His storytelling methods and creations garnered attention, leading to the debut of 'Steve Light’s Storyboxes' at the New York Toy Fair in February 2012, produced by Guidecraft toys. In addition to his storytelling and illustrative work, Light has published children's books including 'Puss in Boots' and 'The Shoemaker Extraordinaire,' both in 2002. His background in storytelling and illustration continues to influence his involvement in children's literature and educational tools.
