Guest Biography

Whether working as a Theater Arts Montessori Teacher, University Professor, television writer, young adult novelist, recording producer, dramatist, or musical theater lyricist, Eileen loves sharing her passion for storytelling with all ages!  Through the years, her written works were twice honored with the Emmy® Award, a National Jewish Book Award,  the International Reading Association’s “Teacher’s Choice  Award,” and a Thorpe Menn Honorable Mention Literary Award.

Eileen’s newest project is Leenie’s Library TM, a set of digital picture book musicals whose mission is to inspire a love for reading through a union of lively musical theater and comedic animation encouraging youngsters to read “just for fun.” Eileen conceived, directed, and produced this unique project, (free to all on the internet), starring award winning artists from Broadway, as well as world-class musicians from international concert halls. Recently, Leenie’s Library was included in a series of masterclasses for music educators in Beijing, China. To enjoy and share, please visit www.leenieslibrary.com.

When writing musical theater, Eileen Collaborates with her sister, Gail C. Bluestone. Dozens of  Broadway’s Tony® Award winning stars have recorded the sisters’ music and performed their songs live on such renown stages as Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall. Their melodies that celebrate Hanukkah (“My Mother’s Menorah”) Christmas (“I Keep Christmas in My Pocket”) and Kwanzaa (Kwanzaa’s Pure Light”) are streamed around the world every holiday season.
