Amy Nyikos is an Emmy Award-winning Graphic Artist, storyteller, and lifelong lover of all things stylish, sparkly, and fun. With over 20 years of experience in television production, Amy has created compelling graphics and visual storytelling for a wide range of programming—from children's segments like Raising Your Kids to Red Carpets, Premieres, Oscar Preview Shows, and even the WWE. Her work has earned more than a dozen Emmy Award nominations, multiple Telly Awards, New York Press Club honors, Associated Press Awards, and recognition from the New York State Broadcasters Association.
A proud graduate of Syracuse University, Amy blends her passion for design, fashion, and storytelling in everything she does. Inspired by her love of couture, she created The Little Fashionista’s Alphabet!—a playful introduction for young readers to iconic designers from A to Z. She followed that with The Little Orange Alphabet, a spirited and humorous journey through all things Syracuse University, and The Little Irish Alphabet, a tribute to her deep-rooted Notre Dame family ties and storytelling traditions. Her latest title, The Little Speedster’s Alphabet, takes young car enthusiasts on a fast-paced ride through the alphabet, featuring luxury vehicles from Aston Martin to Zenvo.
When she's not writing or designing, Amy can be found treasure hunting for fabulous fashion finds, spending time with her husband and two kids, or dreaming up her next big idea. From fashion runways to college campuses to racetracks, Amy Nyikos brings sparkle, wit, and heart to every page.
