Coming from a background of visual storytelling across several fields, Pauline is now an author/illustrator of children's books, a perfect playground for so many of her interests.
Way back in the digital Stone Age (i.e., 1987), Pauline co-founded Rhythm & Hues Studios, a computer animation and visual effects company, which went on to win multiple Academy Awards® for Best Visual Effects (“Life of Pi”, “Babe”, and “The Golden Compass”). Pauline wore many hats there, including programmer, digital artist, and art director. She worked on projects such as “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone”, Disney's theme park attraction “It's Tough to be a Bug”, and the first Coco-Cola Polar Bear commercial.
She has co-led nature photography workshops through various parts of the West and Southwest, including many trips to the Four Corners region, the home of the Hopi and other Pueblo Indians. Her photographs and artwork have been in juried and non-juried exhibits, as well as represented in several private collections.
Inspired by her trips to the Southwest, her first published book is “Whispers of the Wolf” (Wisdom Tales Press). It received multiple awards and recognition, including the 2016 New Mexico/Arizona Book Award and a starred Booklist review. Pauline is a member of SCBWI, the Storyteller Academy, and Children’s Book Insider.
Pauline currently lives in Los Angeles, CA with her husband, chasing after her two children who are growing way too fast. She once served as a float judge for the Rose Parade where she got to hold a bald eagle.
