Autorenporträt
An avid reader her whole life, Jessica DelVirginia always knew that she'd write a children's book one day. The opportunity presented itself when Rocky made her appearance at Rockefeller Center in 2020. Jessica grew up in New Jersey, and would look forward to traveling into New York City every year to see the Rockefeller tree with her family. Jessica is now the founder of Insite Strategy, a strategic communications firm based in the New York metro area, where she tells the stories of her clients in a number of industries on a daily basis. Telling Rocky's story was an exciting creative departure from her typical press releases. Jessica is a graduate of New York University and IE Business School. Courtney Ling began her career with the intention of inspiring generations raised on technology to reconnect with the communities, cultures, and landscapes around them. After working as a designer in a variety of industries, she realized that she could make a difference by putting thoughtful work into niche industries where the creative details were typically overlooked. Courtney now works in the packaging design industry, with a focus on beauty. She loves heartwarming holiday stories, and when the opportunity arose to illustrate Rocky's tale, she was excited to make this her first foray into illustration for children. Courtney holds a BFA from The College of New Jersey.
