Natalie S. Bober is an award-winning biographer and historian. Her biographies describe the milieu from which her subjects sprang, and show how their accomplishments were an outgrowth of the lives they lived.
Bober’s books have appeal across a wide spectrum of ages, and have garnered starred reviews from Booklist, School Library Journal, and Kirkus Reviews. They have been acclaimed in The New York Times Book Review as among the best of their genre being written today.
Abigail Adams: Witness to a Revolution was chosen as the winner of the Boston Globe/Horn Book Award for nonfiction; her biography of Thomas Jefferson led to working with Ken Burns on his PBS documentary of the president.
Bober holds degrees in English and reading and has taught and conducted workshops on biography for teachers as well as young people. She was twice a featured speaker at the annual lecture series on the Adams family at the Adams National Historic Site.
Ms. Bober was elected to the Hunter College Hall of Fame in May 2001. She resides with her husband in Manhattan and derives great pleasure from her children and grandchildren, who happily serve as critics of her works.
