About Deedee Cummings

deedee-cummings-author-branding-image_orig

Deedee Cummings is a professional dreamer, author of eighteen books, therapist, attorney, and mom from Louisville, Kentucky.

Cummings founded Make A Way Media in 2014 after struggling to find books with characters who looked like her own children and an extreme lack of stories that reflected their life experiences. Books published by Make A Way focus on hope, diversity, social justice, and therapeutic skills for children and adults. Her work has been featured in HuffPost, Forbes, NPR, USA Today, Essence Magazine, Psych Central, Well+Good, and The EveryGirl, among other media outlets.

In 2021, Governor Andy Beshear appointed her to the Kentucky Early Childhood Advisory Council, acknowledging her decades-long service to the children and families of Kentucky.

Deedee is also the founder of The Louisville Book Festival, which celebrates its fifth year in 2024 and hosts over 150 authors and presenters from all over the country. She was inspired to work to highlight and celebrate a culture of reading in her community after working as an in-home therapist and visiting the homes of children who had no books.

Cummings believes literacy is a fundamental human right. Her work highlights inspiring messages that remind us all that it is never too late to begin again. She is currently working to adapt her latest children’s series, inspired by the life of her daughter, Kayla Pecchioni (a Broadway actress), to a Broadway musical. Deedee recently founded the Make A Way Mindset program to teach the unshakable mindset she has developed as an entrepreneur of thirty years.

Her latest book, How to Dream, is her first book written for adults and was released in October 2024.
