Houston’s First Lady, Andrea White, Publishes Her Second Brilliant Book
"This page turning adventure may well pry a few of today's couch potatoes away from the TV." - Publisher's Weekly
Community activist, education advocate and award winning author, Andrea White, is a founding member of the board of Houston A+ Challenge, an organization that supports public school reform by providing teachers, principals, and administrators with resources and coaching to improve classroom and district practices. Since its inception, Houston A+ Challenge has raised nearly $90 million to invest in schools across Houston-area school districts.
Andrea also is a founding board member of Expectation Graduation, an organization dedicated to keeping all kids in school until they get their degrees. An important part of that initiative is the annual “Reach out to Dropouts,” when Andrea joins over 1,000 Houston volunteers on a Saturday morning to knock on doors and encourage kids to return to school. Expectation Graduation also has pioneered the use of virtual mentors for at-risk students.
Andrea White is a recipient of the Golden Spur Award for “Best Young Adult Texas Author” for her first book for pre-teens, Surviving Antarctica: Reality TV 2083, published in 2006. Her third book, a coming of age story set against the Chernobyl nuclear explosion, is set for release in 2009. Andrea is also a wife, mother of three, good friend to many, and as Houston’s First Lady, considers her role as a truly unique and wonderful volunteer job.
