Timeline
Paul Fleischman (born 1952) is an American writer of children's books.
He and his father Sid Fleischman have both won the Newbery Medal from the American Library Association recognizing the year's "most distinguished contribution to American literature for children".
Graven Images received a Newbery Honor award in 1983.
Fleischman won the 1989 Newbery Medal for Joyful Noise: Poems for Two Voices, only two years after his father won it for The Whipping Boy.
Multiple points of view have been a hallmark of his fiction, beginning with Bull Run (1993), one of the first multiple-viewpoint novels published for children.
This format was further explored in Seedfolks, the 50-voice aural collage Seek, the seven-plays-in-one Zap, and the joined Cinderella variants in Glass Slipper, Gold Sandal.
The importance of history, community, art, and imagination have been frequent themes in his work.
He won a National Book Award nomination for Breakout in 2003, the 1994 Scott O'Dell Award for Historical Fiction for Bull Run, the 2002 California Young Reader Medal for Weslandia, Boston Globe–Horn Book Award honors for Joyful Noise and Saturnalia, the PEN Center USA Literary Award for The Dunderheads (2010), and the Christopher Medal for The Matchbox Diary (2013).
He also received the Leo Politi Golden Author Award given by California Readers in 2005 and the Horace Mann Upstanders Lifetime Achievement Award given by Antioch University in 2014.
For the body of his work he was the United States author nominee for the international Hans Christian Andersen Award in 2012.
Paul Fleischman was born in Monterey, California and raised in Santa Monica, California, the son of children's book author Sid Fleischman.
At 19, he took a cross-country bicycle and train trip which ended with him living in a 200-year-old house in New Hampshire.
The experience led to his historical fiction dealing with the Puritans' Indian wars, colonial peddlers, Philadelphia's yellow fever epidemic, and the Civil War.
He attended college at University of California Berkeley and the University of New Mexico.
Before writing full-time, he worked as a bagel baker, library shelver, bookstore clerk, and proofreader, the last leading to his grammar watchdog groups Colonwatch and The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to English.
Fleischman's first books were written while he was still in college, inspired by his reading of folklore.
His musical interests are reflected in his collections of poems for two and four speakers, so-called chamber music for speaking voices.
For the body of his work, he was the United States' nominee for the 2012 international Hans Christian Andersen Award.
Eyes Wide Open: Going Behind the Environmental Headlines (2014) was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, received the Green Earth Book Award from The Nature Generation, and won the Sigurd Olson Nature Writing Award.
Paul Fleischman has also won awards from the Commonwealth Club of California and the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators.
