Picoult has published 26 novels accompanying stories, and has written several editions of Wonder Woman. Approximately 40 million copies of her books are in print worldwide, translated into 34 languages. In 2003, she was awarded the New England Bookseller Award for Fiction. Picoult writes popular fiction, which can be described as a family saga. It often centers storylines around a moral dilemma or procedural drama that pits family members against each other. While she is often characterized as the author of Chicken Lit, during her career, Picoult covers a wide range of controversial or moral issues, including abortion, assisted suicide, race relations, eugenics, LGBT rights, and school shootings. It has been described as a paradox, a very popular, sometimes controversial writer, ignored by academia, who questions the notion of what constitutes literature is simply to do what it does best. Picult's early life was born in Nesquiet, New York, on Long Island and has one younger brother. In June 1983, she graduated from Smithtown High School in the East. She described her family as non-practicing Jews. Picult wrote her first story at the age of five titled The Lobster Which Misunderstood. Picult's mother and grandmother were teachers, and she says their influence on her was very important. She studied creative writing at Princeton University with Mary Morris, and graduated in 1987 with A.B. in English after completing a 320-page senior thesis called Development. She published two stories in Seventeen magazine back in college. Immediately after graduating from university, she began to hold a variety of positions, ranging from editing textbooks to teaching eighth grade English. She received her master's degree in education from Harvard University. Picoult has two honorary degrees of doctor's letters; one from Dartmouth College in 2010, the other from New Haven University in 2012. In 2016, Picult was selected as a Princeton speaker before joining the job. Piault's career became a screenwriter for the DC Comics wonder woman series (vol. 3), following the departure of Allan Heinberg. Its first issue (number 6) was released on March 28, 2007, and the last number 10 was released on June 27, 2007. Nineteen minutes, Picult's novel on the aftermath of a school shooting in a small published on March 9, 2007, was her first book book debut at number 1 on the New York Times bestseller list. Her book Changing the Heart, published on March 4, 2008, was her second novel, debuting at number 1 on this list. Handle with Caution in 2009 and House Rules in 2010 also reached number one on the Times bestseller list. Jodie Pickult knows that she's often pigeon-holed as a chicken-lit author, but has stated that what she loses in critical acclaim, she gets an influence: I'm never going to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, not going to win the National Book Award, not even to be nominated. What you trade for is sales and readers. And I'd rather reach more people. It would be very nice not to be unfairly accused of being a bad writer, but hopefully if you pick up one of my books, you'll be quickly disabused by this notion. In November 2019, Piculult took part in a critique of Brooke Nelson, a college student who was mentioned in a local newspaper, saying she thought Sarah Dessen YA's novels were unsuitable for the Common Read program, which runs Northern State University, Aberdeen, and instead advocated the inclusion of Just Mercy, a memoir by civil rights lawyer Brian Stevenson. Piult described Nelson's views as evil and humiliating for women and urged her Twitter followers to fight patriarchy in response to Nelson's comments. When the story was reported to Jezebel, The Guardian, The Washington Post, and Slate, Picoult posted an apology on Twitter, noting that her comments led to harassment and bullying of Nelson. In 2016, Picoult joined the advisory board of Vida: Women in Literary Arts, a non-profit feminist organization committed to creating transparency around the lack of gender parity in the literary landscape and strengthening historically marginalized voices, including people of color; Writers with disabilities and strange, trans and gender-unbelieving personalities. The Picoult website states that VIDA: Women in Literary Arts is a research organization. She was a member of the First Writers' Council of the National Writers' Project in 2013, an organization that recognizes the universality of writing as a communication tool and helps teachers improve student writing. This inaugural group consisted of 30 published authors. She was a spokeswoman for Positive Tracks, a company that gives young people the opportunity to raise funds through athletics and partners with other charities. In 2010, Picule led the 5th Annual Children's Hospital at Dartmouth Half Marathon Hero and the 5K Walk relay around Occum Pond and through Hanover, New Hampshire. She is a member of the Coalition's Advisory Committee against The Death in New Hampshire, organizations seeking to end the death penalty in New York State through advocacy, education and advocacy. She co-founded, with Marjorie Rose, of the Trumbull Hall troupe in 2004 as a means of providing children with a fun, educational theatrical experience. Children from 6th grade to 12th grade audition will be in the original musical written by Picoult and composer Ellen Wilber. The proceeds have been donated to local charities. The organization's contributions have exceeded $120,000 since its founding. Picult speaks at the Women's Day of Action and Unity in New Hampshire on January 21, 2017 in support of the Women's March on Washington.

  • MY SISTER's KEEPER / Jodi Picoult
    MY SISTER’S KEEPER / Jodi Picoult About the book Anna is not sick, but she might as well be. By age thirteen, she has undergone countless surgeries, transfusions, and shots so that her older sister, Kate, can somehow fight the leukemia that has plagued her since childhood. The product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Kate - a life and a role that she has never questioned… until now. Like most teenagers, Anna is beginning to question who she truly is. But unlike most teenagers, she has always been defined in terms of her sister - and so Anna makes a decision that for most would be unthinkable… a decision that will tear her family apart and have perhaps fatal consequences for the sister she loves. My Sister's Keeper examines what it means to be a good parent, a good sister, a good person. Is it morally correct to do whatever it takes to save a child's life… even if that means infringing upon the rights of another? Is it worth trying to discover who you really are, if that quest makes you like yourself less?
