Biographical Note
Ursula Dubosarsky was born into a family of writers in Sydney in 1961, studied several languages at Sydney University and after graduating in 1982, taught French for a while to primary school children. She moved to ÃØÃÜÖ±²¥ for two years, working by day in the public service and by night writing a book that was to become Ziggy Zing (1991). Dubosarsky then travelled to Israel and spent a year on a kibbutz before returning to Australia and taking up a position as a researcher for Reader's Digest Magazine. Her first book, Maisie and the Pinny Gig, written with Roberta Landers, was published in 1989. After spending another year on a kibbutz, she wrote her second book for children, The White Guinea Pig, in 1992. This was followed by The First Book of Samuel in 1995, based on a story told to her by her Hebrew teacher at the kibbutz. Her 1996 book, Bruno and the Crumhorn came about through a series of encounters with an Early Music society, and an interest in the instruments. Dubosarsky's books have been well received not only in Australia but also in the UK. She has won several awards, including the 1994 Victorian Premier's Award for Children's Literature.
