Sara Kahn
Sara is an artist and illustrator currently living in San Francisco with her husband and three cats.
Her fascination with visual delights started from an early age. She is mesmerized by the color of light going through a prism or the way colors run together when one puts them on the paper; a beautiful brocade pattern; a marvelous dream; the gestures of a kitten. She paints in an attempt to take visual notes of what she finds intriguing.
Her illustrations using a combination of techniques have appeared in Cricket and Cicada Magazines. She has won many prizes and honors for her artworks, the most recent one being the SCBWI Magazine Merit award for illustration 2003.

I have loved cats since I was a child. In Iran, when I was only 5 years old, we lived in a house that had a big garden. There were lots of stray cats visiting our garden. My grandmother fed all those stray cats. 32 of them were residents of the garden, others just visited every now and then. I named every one of the 32 resident cats, I have cared for cats ever since and try to help the organizations that help and rescue cats and kittens. My husband and I currently have three cats.
