Claire Tattersfield, Associate Editor

Claire Tattersfield is an associate editor at Viking Children’s Books and Flamingo Books. She began her career at Penguin Young Readers in 2019 after graduating from the University of Vermont with a degree in political science and global studies and a minor in Spanish. She supports Flamingo and Viking with picture books and a dash of young adult and middle grade. When she is not working she can be found playing with her formerly feral cat named Antonio Banderas, calling her friends to come pick her up because she accidentally walked ten miles too far, watering her plants (of which she has too many), or writing the occasional picture book.

Her books at Flamingo include Lauren Glattly and Rob Sayegh Jr.’s Proper Badger Would Never!, Dudolf’s Piggle the Pig, and Brittany Pomales and Andrew Joyner’s It Started with a P, with many other silly titles to come.
