Léna Roy is a creative writing teacher, and an author of fiction and creative non-fiction, as well as being Madeleine L’Engle’s granddaughter. She has written a biography of her grandmother, Becoming Madeleine with her sister, Charlotte Jones Voiklis, coming out in February 2018. Léna is a Regional Manager for Writopia Lab in the suburbs of New York City. Writopia Lab’s mission is to foster joy, literacy, and critical thinking in kids and teens from all backgrounds through creative writing. Since 2014, Léna has been recognized by the Scholastic Awards "as an outstanding educator whose dedication, commitment, and guidance are represented by student work selected for national honors." Mentoring has long been the connective tissue in Léna's life, whether through her work with at-risk adolescents in Utah, California, and New York; or through her own writing discipline, as fostered by her late grandmother. It was her grandmother who taught Léna to transform the solitary nature of writing into a sacred sense of community, where her art and the art of others can flourish.
