edit data

Seema Rao has worked in museums for nearly 20 years at the interstices of visitor experience, education, and technology. She started her career with an interest in medical illustration. While no longer drawing dinosaur bones and bird neurology, she employs her rendering skills to develop books that blend meaning-making, creativity, and visual appeal. This is her third book. Her previous books include Self-Care for #TheResistance and Beyond Defensiveness.

Ms. Rao was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio where she continues to reside. She loves to draw, eat, and read. But, mostly, she enjoys hanging out with her husband, daughters, and insanely easy-going dog.

Active on social media, you can find her at:
