Blair Northen Williamson is an award-winning children’s author, national school speaker, devoted mom, and lifelong ocean explorer. Before becoming an author, she worked as a scuba diving instructor and boat captain, guiding others across open water and beneath the sea’s surface. Those years surrounded by coral reefs, shifting tides, and marine life now shape the vivid, heart-filled stories she writes for children.
Blair is the author of THE OCEAN PROTECTORS: Colors of the Coral Reef, ISLAND GIRLS: Free the Sea of Plastic, and BIRTHDAY BASH. Her books have earned multiple honors, including the Book Excellence Award, Best Picture Book of 2025 from the American Writing Awards, and Amazon #1 New Release recognition.
As both a mother and a writer, Blair believes stories can spark laughter, open meaningful conversations, and inspire young readers to protect our precious planet—especially our oceans. Through school visits and speaking engagements nationwide, she empowers children to see themselves as brave, capable stewards of the Earth.
Blair is represented by Andie Smith and the team at Creative Media Agency.
