May "Nonny" Hogrogian (May 7, 1932 – May 9, 2024) was an American writer and illustrator, known best for children's picture books.
The New York Times attributes her for bringing multiculturalism to children's literature by evoking her Armenian heritage.
[1] Another children's author describes her approach to American culture as that of a patchwork quilt, rather than a melting pot.
[3] In 1960, Crowell published her first works in King of the Kerry Fair, a book with text by Nicolete Meredith, which Hogrogian illustrated with woodcuts.
[6] Always Room for One More was written by Sorche Nic Leodhas and published by Holt, Rinehart and Winston in 1965.
