Rebecca O'Donnell is a Writer/Artist in New York. Her work has appeared at the Alice Tully estate, Oheka Castle, the Russian Tea Room in Manhattan, the Long Island Shakespeare Society, the Paul Newman Double "H" Hole in the Woods Ranch, Schneider's Children's Hospital, and many private collections. She has taught art therapy at an abused children's home, and her personal memoir Freak: The True Story of an Insecurity Addict, has helped some readers with similar trauma to not commit suicide. Her novel Manifest Destiny, inspired by an idea from her partner Sabatino Stefanile, was driven by her own past, as well as others with trauma she's met or counseled over the years. Hurt Magic came about from one of her fans suggesting she create a children's book to help victims of bullying, and/or abuse. "Creating is therapy, you can splash it out on canvas, clay, paper. You can get it out."With quirky humor and stunning artwork, Rebecca O'Donnell does just that, with both writing and art.
