Antonietta Tripodi Quinn

Antonietta Tripodi Quinn is an award-winning, best-selling author, a former educator of almost 30 years, and mother of two boys. Her story begins in the classroom and ends on the court, but that’s not where it ends; in fact, that’s exactly where it takes off. Throughout a rewarding career in teaching and curriculum development, Antonietta was always eager and ready to take on new challenges. She also always had the idea of writing a children’s book in the back of her mind. It was not until her son, Andrew, reached middle school and tried out for the basketball team that her true calling began to take shape. Facing a crossroads in her career, she recalled her dream of becoming a writer, and so it began.

In her debut book release, Andrew Conquers the Court, Antonietta artfully tells the tale of how perseverance can overcome anything. Through this inspiring story, where Andrew confronts challenges and how to overcome them, children everywhere will feel empowered to follow the path of persistence. The message is clear: If you follow your dreams, work hard, and believe in yourself, amazing things will happen!
