Talia Benamy, Author

Talia Benamy loves writing stories that center Jewish identity and bring light into the world. She is also the editor and backlist manager at Philomel, an imprint of Penguin Young Readers, where she works on books for kids and teens. In her non-book-focused time, she loves travel, nature, politics, and being an aunt to a whole host of niblings. Twinkle, Twinkle, Hanukkah is her first book. Talia lives in Brooklyn, New York, where she was born and raised.
