ABOUT BILLY BALDWIN
Billy Baldwin found a great passion for story telling when he started a cookie company years ago by creating and imaginary world,“ Cookie Island,” to help market those cookies. This passion led to Baldwin’s development of children’s books and screenplays.
Being dyslexic, the reading and writing posed an emotional and practical challenge, but his love for visual & creative development helped create a balanced and working relationship with his creativity. Currently, he has created twelve books, has won numerous awards for his efforts, and has begun to attract television and film interests.
Baldwin feels extremely lucky to have found a great passion for storytelling, birthing idea with pencil and paper, his weapon of choice. A lot of his creations come from walking and paddling at sea, in the small coastal town where he lives, Sag Harbor, NY.
He has developed an annual award at his high school…
