Oge Mora

Oge Mora is a children's book illustrator and author living in Providence, Rhode Island. She received a Caldecott Honor, Coretta Scott King John Steptoe Award for New Talent, and Ezra Jack Keats Book Award in 2019 for her book, ''Thank You, Omu!''.

Her parents emigrated from Nigeria to Columbus, Ohio. Mora attended the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). While taking a class called "Picture and Word" at RISD, she created a picture book mock-up, titled ''Omu's Stew'' for her final project. The teacher invited editors and art directors to see the final work and Mora's draft was picked up by publisher Little, Brown and Company and published as ''Thank You, Omu!.''

Her illustrations are created with cut paper, paint, and china markers. Provided by Wikipedia
