About
To write these books, Brad has worked with everyone from Dolly Parton, Billie Jean King and Jane Goodall -- all of whom helped with their I AM book – as well as with the estates of Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Jr., and so many others. For this newest book, Justice Ginsburg’s daughter was a mentor of Brad, giving him unprecedented access to stories and photos. Brad came up with the idea for the books for his own children. He wanted his two sons and daughter to have real heroes to look up to. His children are now young adults and are part of a generation of kids raised on this series. Some of his most well-known books have been banned and challenged (I am Rosa Parks and I am Martin Luther King, Jr.), but Brad is one of the few authors who’s been able to fight back, win, and get his books reinstated. Brad has numerous bestselling thrillers, non-fiction history books, and even comic books, which is why the Hollywood Reporter put him on their list of the 25 Most Powerful Authors. He even makes history himself, finding the missing 9/11 flag with his History Channel TV show.
