The power of diversity in young peoples literature | Phillippe Diederich | TEDxBradenton
Communities should have shelves and shelves of books available for young people, diverse books, all kinds of books, fiction and non-fiction and poetry. To build a community of readers, we need to create an environment in which children can see themselves in the books they read. Phillippe Diederich is the author of the Young Adult novels “Diamond
Park,” Dutton, 2022; “Playing for the Devil’s Fire,” Cinco Puntos Press,
2016, which was named the 2017 Best Young Adult novel by the Texas
Institute of Letters, and 2017 Young Adult Library Services Association
Best Fiction for Young Adults; and “Sofrito,” Cinco Puntos Press, 2015.
His Middle Grade novel, “Lalo Lespérance Never Forgot” will be
available in the fall of 2023. He currently teaches fiction writing in the
MFA creative writing program at Goddard College.
The son of Haitian exiles, Diederich was born in the Dominican
Republic and raised in Mexico City and Miami. During the 1990’s he
worked as a photojournalist, covering news and feature assignments in the U.S. and Latin America for national publications.
In 2017 Diederich was awarded the PEN Phyllis Naylor Working Writer
Fellowship. His short fiction has been nominated for 4 Pushcart Prizes.
He is the recipient of the Chris O’Malley Prize for Fiction from the
Madison Review, an Elizabeth George Foundation Grant, a Florida
Individual Artist Fellowship in Literature from the Florida Department
of Cultural Affairs, and a John Ringling Towers Grant in Literature from
the Sarasota County Artist Alliance. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
