Jack Watson, who was born in Washington, D.C., and now lives in Chevy Chase, Md.,  majored in drama at the Catholic University of America, where he starred in several productions, including Macbeth, Our Town and The Shadow of a Gunman. After college, he curated Playbills as an intern at Ford’s Theatre and studied at The Theatre Lab in D.C. 

 

Much of Jack’s passion for the arts comes from his love of fantasy fiction --  especially classic fairy tales, myths, and legends, as well as contemporary fiction aimed at young audiences. His neurodiverse thinking – Jack is on the autism spectrum – brings an added level of detail and conscientiousness to his narration. 

 

When he’s not immersed in a novel, Jack also enjoys traveling, swimming, video games, anime, and comic books.
