<em><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Hey, Al,</span></em> which earned the Caldecott Medal in 1987. His writing has been hailed as “one of the most distinctive prose styles in children’s literature.” In his talk, he’ll share highlights of his wide-ranging
career and his collaborations with a broad spectrum of celebrated artists including Maurice Sendak, with whom he formed Night Kitchen Theater to present plays, operas, and musical comedies to children. He currently serves as a writer and executive producer,
through Night Kitchen Studios, to develop projects based on the work of Maurice Sendak for Apple TV. In addition to his literary work, Yorinks has written and directed for opera, theater, dance, film, and radio.
