Bryan Collier Biography
Bryan Collier, an acclaimed American writer and illustrator, is renowned for his contributions to children's literature. His unique approach to illustration, which marries watercolors with collage, has garnered him substantial recognition within his field. He has won six Coretta Scott King Awards and received four Caldecott Honors, a testament to his innovative and impactful work. Notable books under his belt include "I, Too, Am America" by Langston Hughes and "Rosa" by Nikki Giovanni. His own work, "Uptown," further cemented his standing by winning the Coretta Scott King Illustrator Award.
Collier's creative partnerships with authors such as Nikki Grimes and Doreen Rappaport have resulted in culturally powerful children's books. His work consistently explores themes of African American history and culture, fostering an essential dialogue within the realm of children's literature. In 2014, his substantial contributions were internationally acknowledged when he was nominated as the U.S. illustrator for the Hans Christian Andersen Award, a prestigious global recognition.
Beyond his illustrative work, Collier has shown a dedicated interest in fostering art within his community. He has served as the Program Director for the Harlem Horizon Art Studio for twelve years, and to this day, he continues to volunteer at the studio. He frequently engages with schools, discussing books and art with teachers, librarians, and students. His active involvement and commitment to fostering a love for art and literature extend his influence beyond his award-winning books, making him a valued figure within the sphere of children's literature and art education.
Collier received a scholarship through a national talent competition through the Pratt Institute in New York City, one of the leading art schools in the United States, where he graduated with honors. Today, he lives with his family in Harlem in New York City.
