Author Biography

Marya Washington Tyler, M.Ed., enjoyed teaching middle school students in Wisconsin, Idaho, Washington State and Alaska for 18 wonderful years. She continues to serve teachers by writing math books such as Real Life Math Mysteries, It's Alive!, It's Alive (and Kicking!) and On the Job Math Mysteries, all of which have been best sellers in the field of gifted education.

David Washington, now Partner Group Manager at Microsoft, with his best friend Asa, helped conceptualize the idea for the first edition and develop the problems while still in middle school.

Asa Kleiman, now a freelance illustrator, was the genius behind most of the humor you'll find in It's Alive! The Funniest Math Book Ever!
