M.T. Anderson Biography

Matthew Tobin Anderson is an American author of picture books, pre-teen books, and young-adult novels. He won the National Book Award for Young People's Literature in 2006 for The Pox Party, volume one of the "Octavian Nothing" books, which are historical novels set in Revolution-era Boston. Anderson is known for using wit and sarcasm in his stories, as well as advocating that young adults are capable of mature comprehension

Anderson was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts. His father (Will Anderson) was an engineer, and his mother (Juliana Anderson) was an episcopal priest. Anderson attended St. Mark's School, then went on to Harvard college, the University of Cambridge (England), and Syracuse University. Anderson worked at Candlewick Press before his first novel Thirsty (1997) was accepted for publication there. He has also worked as a disc jockey for WCUW Radio, and as an instructor at Vermont College of Fine Arts, where he now serves on the Board, and as a music critic for The Improper Bostonian. He currently lives in Boston and is on the Board of the National Children's Book and Literacy Alliance, a national non-profit organization that advocates for literacy, literature, and libraries.
