About David Gorman

I'm David, and I write exciting mysteries with heart for kids ages 8-12! I also speak to 2nd-5th graders to inspire them to read, write, and pursue their dreams. It's a pretty cool job, right?

​​

As a kid, I always had a book in my hand. From the grocery store to the dentist's office to my sister's dance recital--I was getting lost in a new world. I thought it would be neat to write my own book. 

​

After studying Creative Writing in college, I did just that! My first book came out in 2016, and I've loved sharing my stories ever since.

 

It's extra special to share Waldameer, my family's amusement park, with my audience. Waldameer is one of the oldest amusement parks in the country! It has lots of fun history that I include in the books.

​

Now I live in Richmond, Virginia, and I make trips back to Pennsylvania and around Virginia to speak at schools and spread the joy of reading.​
