Herve Tullet
Born in France, in Avranches, Herve Tullet is an artist, a performer and an author of children books. After 10 years spent in advertising, he started illustrating children books. The first one was published in 1994 and called How Daddy met Mommy. It was an instant success. Since 1994, Hervé has published over 80 books and received many awards.
His books are meant for children from all ages. They can be touched, and content can be added: The reader participates to the creative process. Hervé, who sees himself as an artist and is influenced by modern art, spent 5 years in New York from 2015 to 2020. There he started developing workshops for the general public as well as interactive exhibitions. His most recent project is called the Ideal Exhibition. Through videos, he encourages participants to create their own exhibit. With Virgil de Voldère, Founder of the bilingual preschool La Petite Ecole, Hervé Tullet is in the process of developing a curriculum based on the Ideal Exhibit which will be accessible to all the schools all over the world. 
Hervé is artist-in-residence at the Lycee Francais de New York with the First Graders in 2020-2021
