Jenny Lundquist is the author of seven middle grade and young adult novels, including "Seeing Cinderella," "The Charming Life of Izzy Malone," and "The Princess in the Opal Mask."

She holds an MFA in Creative Writing from San Francisco State University and resides in Northern California with her family and their rescue dog, Ollie.
Born in Huntington Beach, California, Lundquist studied intercultural studies at Biola University before pursuing writing professionally. Her global experiences - from painting an orphanage in Mexico to teaching English in Russia - inform her storytelling with diverse perspectives. Lundquist’s writing often explores themes of self-discovery and resilience, whether in realistic settings or imagined worlds. When not writing, she enjoys outdoor adventures, from parasailing on Lake Tahoe to spontaneous coastal trips.
