USA flag (b.1942)

Cynthia Voigt is the author of over twenty books, including the Newbery Award-winning Dicey's Song. Her more recent publications, however, have been Bad: Bad Girls; Bad, Badder, Baddest; and It's Not Easy Being Bad. While she admits that she wasn't quite the hard-hitting bad girl that Mikey and Margalo are, she tried her best, and sometimes succeeded. She lives in Maine, where they know what a good bad girl is worth.
