L.S. Quinn is a writer, artist, performer, and activist. She is the founder and Board President of The Reading Room CLE, a nonprofit bookstore that accepts donations of used books and sells them, primarily online, to fund literacy programs. Her vision is to be one bookstore for the whole city, so instead of seeking a traditional retail storefront, they conduct programs and events throughout Cleveland. Events have included hosting a Feminist Writing Circle with dual meetings on the East and West Side, author launches, and book-themed get-togethers around the city. Their newest endeavor is to launch a book club. Additionally, they are one of the local sponsors of National Novel Writing Month, a global festival of writing, and conduct story hours and book giveaways at schools and community festivals. Quinn is a graduate of the University of Akron.
