Daryl Cobb lives in New Jersey with his wife and two children. Daryl’s writing began in college as a Theatre Arts major at Virginia Commonwealth University. He found a freshman writing class inspiring and, combined with his love for music and the guitar, he discovered a passion for songwriting. This talent would motivate him for years to come and the rhythm he created with his music also found its way into the bedtime stories he later created for his children. The story ＂Boy on the Hill,＂ about a boy who turns the clouds into animals, was his first bedtime story/song and was inspired by his son and an infatuation with the shapes of clouds. Through the years his son and daughter have inspired so much of his work, including ＂Daniel Dinosaur＂ and ＂Daddy Did I Ever Say? I Love You, Love You, Every Day.＂ Daryl spends a lot of his time these days visiting schools promoting literacy with his interactive educational assemblies ＂Teaching Through Creative Arts.＂ These performance programs teach children about the writing and creative process and allow Daryl to do what he feels is most important -- inspire children to read and write. He also performs at benefits and libraries with his ＂Music & Storytime＂ shows. He is a member of the SCBWI.
