Liza Woodruff has illustrated fourteen books in the eleven years she has worked as a children's book illustrator. Liza lives in Vermont with her husband Tom and their two children Thomas and Eden. They enjoy the outdoors, skiing in the winter and hiking, swimming and gardening in the summer.

Liza and her older brother and sister grew up in Bristol, Rhode Island in a small town close to the salt water with ponds and meadows to explore. With a biology teacher for a father and librarian mother, she learned to love animals, books and the outdoors at an early age.

After graduating from Muhlenberg College and the Art Institute of Boston, Liza immersed herself in the world of children's books and illustration. While building her career as an illustrator, Liza worked at the Horn Book Magazine. There she was surrounded by helpful mentors and quality children's books by renowned authors and illustrators.

Liza is currently illustrating her fifteenth book and writing a book of her own. In addition to books, she also illustrates school textbooks, magazines, and posters.
