About Lee Wind

Lee Wind is not currently a spy. Mind you, he never was a spy. But he did spend fourteen years undercover (what most people call "in the closet"). So now he writes the books that would have changed his life as a Gay Jewish kid and teen. Lee is the award-winning author of nonfiction for ages eleven and up (No Way, They Were Gay? and The Gender Binary Is a Big Lie), picture books (including Like That Eleanor and Love of the Half-Eaten Peach), and YA novels (Queer as a Five-Dollar Bill and A Different Kind of Brave). To help go on the offense against book banning, Lee cocreated the national campaign We Are Stronger than Censorship, which buys and donates two books to offset every one book challenge. He also runs the popular blog I'm Here. I'm Queer. What the Hell Do I Read?--words his teenage self only dreamed of saying. Visit Lee online at leewind.org.
