Anita Daher was born in PEI and has spent much of her life moving, and she draws writing inspiration from the many places she’s been fortunate to spend time in – Summerside PEI, Yellowknife NT, Churchill MB, Baker Lake NU, and Sault Ste. Marie ON, among others. This year has been an important one for Daher. She has three new titles: Racing for Diamonds (Orca) is her third adventure story for young readers; Two Foot Punch (Orca) and Spider’s Song (Penguin) take that intensity up a notch for teen readers.
This spring she received the John Hirsch Award for Most Promising Manitoba Writer.
Daher now lives in Winnipeg.
