Robin has been hanging around libraries pretty much since birth. In school through to Bryn Mawr College, she volunteered and worked in libraries and thought, "Hey, I can do that. I want to do that." She is currently working as the Teen Librarian in Brookline, MA. Her interests and vocation combine in her work with teenagers, and graphic novels have become her niche in the library world. She is the creator and editor in chief of the graphic novel review website, No Flying No Tights (www.noflyingnotights.com). She published "Understanding Manga and Anime", a guide to Japanese manga and anime, for Libraries Unlimited in June 2007, and nominated for an Eisner Award in 2008. She contributes reviews and features to publications including Library Journal, School Library Journal (Good Comics for Kids group blog contributor), VOYA, and Early Word. She has also been lucky enough to serve on a variety of committees for YALSA, including Popular Paperbacks for Young Adults, Great Graphic Novels for Teens, and as Chair of the Margaret A. Edwards Award Committee. She was a judge for the 2007 Will Eisner awards.
