Michael Genhart

Michael Genhart's text for Spanish is the Language of My Family is inspired by stories his mother told to him as a child. He is a clinical psychologist and the author of eight picture books including Love Is Love (a Notable Social Studies Trade Book) and Rainbow: A First Book of Pride, which Publishers Weekly called "A joyous tribute to LGBTQ families." He lives with his husband in Marin County. They are the proud parents of a newly minted 5th grade teacher. When he's not working or writing, you'll find Michael gardening, on a hike, sitting around a dinner table with friends and family, traveling to different countries, enjoying live theatre and music, or sitting in a quiet space with a wonderful book.
