Connie Collins Morgan
Connie Collins Morgan is a native of Louisiana, born to a Cajun mother who sees herself as a Louisianan through and through, which has influenced her writing and focus. She is the author of three children’s books including The Runaway Beignet (2014) and The Cajun Fisherman and His Wife (2018). She has also written a yet-unpublished fourth book called It’s time for bed, Granny. She grew up in French speaking Lafayette and her childhood imagination ran wild on the Bayou, creating images which have since fueled her writing.
Collins Morgan has an MFA in Children’s Literature from Hollins University in Virginia with an MFA in Children’s Literature. Her thesis was on the topic of The Cajun I Am.
