Kelly B. Cartwright, Ph.D. is the Spangler Distinguished Professor of Early Child Literacy at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte where she directs the Reading, Executive function, And Development Lab (READLab) and studies the neurocognitive and affective factors that underlie reading processes and difficulties from preschool through adulthood. Her groundbreaking book, Executive Skills and Reading Comprehension: A Guide for Educators, now in second edition, is the first comprehensive text at this intersection. She regularly works with educators throughout the US to better understand and improve reading, and these experiences inform her research.
