Jennifer Hart is an Assistant Professor of African History at Wayne State University.

Jennifer Hart is a storyteller born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. As an author and illustrator, she encourages readers to pursue all things kind, adventurous and creative in the world. When she's not telling fictional tales, she is composing literal ones in the form of company branding for businesses of all sizes with her company, Hart House Creative.

Hart's award-winning designs have been featured in National Geographic, on billboards, online, and in magazines across the United States. In 2017, she became a published author with book one of the Baxter The Dog Series, "Baxter Goes to Imagination Land." Her debut work was highly regarded by Kirkus - "Hart takes the imagination's wandering to delightfully absurd ends," and Reader's Favorite which gave it a five-star rating. She was also selected to be part of the Nevada Artist's Roster for 2019-2022 and founded a charity book drive, in 2018, called Book for a Book.
