Autorenporträt

"Glass ceilings are made to be flown through!" Her debut novel, FLYING FILLIES, is a young adult historical fiction introducing readers to the WASP-Women Airforce Service Pilots of WWII-timeless heroines who defended freedom with unflinching courage. Set in Sweetwater, Texas, this WW2 kids' adventure story centers on 12-year-old Dawn Springfield, whose love for horses and the trailblazing female pilots shape her growing years.Christy grew up in China, reading every martial arts novel she could find and dreaming of becoming a martial artist. After emigrating to the States as a teenager, she became an award-winning producer and writer. Her works include the Emmy-awarded animated TV series, XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN, produced by Warner Brothers and aired on Cartoon Network worldwide. Passionate about filmmaking, history, and tea, Christy recently directed and produced TEA: The Drink That Changed The World, a documentary tracing tea's epic journey and how this drink changed the world. Inspired by the WASP, Christy often speaks about self-empowerment. Dedicated to preserving the WASP history, she aims to bring this overlooked chapter of World War II history to the classrooms, inspiring children to grow self-confidence and become trailblazers of tomorrow.
