Meet the writing team of Jill Max
Jill Max is the name used by Kelly Goldman Bennett and Ronnie Davidson for their co-authored works.
The team met while enrolled in a children's writing class at Tulsa Community College. During one class session they dreamed up the same book idea at the same time — a scratch-n-sniff cookbook — and the writing team of Jill Max was born. The name, “Jill Max” is a combination of Ronnie's daughter's name “Jill” and Kelly's son's name “Max.”
During their 20 years of collaborating, their work has appeared in more than 50 magazines and newspapers, they have co-authored 5 picture books, and compiled 2 collections of Native American Legends. Though the “Jill Max” team has been separated geographically they continue to collaborate on projects.
