Eleanor Kwei (Lower Hudson Valley, NY) is a graphic designer and illustrator specializing in pen and ink. Her work appears in over 30 published books for children and adults. Raised by diplomat parents Kwei has lived on four continents. In Henna Sourcebook, she combines her background of extensive travel with her artistic passion, pursuing her long-time interest in researching the world's cultures through their art.

Mary Packard (Northport, N.Y.) has written over 250 books for children and adults. Her earliest memories include sitting beside her grandmother who regaled her with exploits of gods and goddesses, tales that had been passed down to her when she was a child living in Greece. As an adult Packard continues to find creative inspiration in the stories and customs of other cultures - from the dreams of the Ojibway and the tales of great Pueblo storytellers to the imaginative expression of all those who practice the timeless tradition of henna art around the world.
