She later attended the Missouri School of Journalism, where she majored in radio and television.

Printz Award, John Green was working at Booklist, where he was mentored by Cooper.[5] During this time, Green gave a draft copy of Looking for Alaska to Cooper, before the book was published; Cooper later recalled that after reading this draft, she thought that "He had a voice you could tell was quite original," and decided she would work with him. She has also described herself as Green's "fairy godmother".[6] Cooper has also said that while she was working with Green, "He was a horrible slob, and he didn’t do his job all that well."[5] In 2007, she won the Prairie State Award from the Illinois Reading Council.[3] References1. ^{{cite web | url=https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G2-3416300033.html | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161008195550/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G2-3416300033.html | dead-url=yes | archive-date=2016-10-08 | title=Ilene Cooper | work=Contemporary Authors | date=2004 | accessdate=29 August 2016}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/life/enter/books/2001-08-16-kindergarten-books.htm | title=Don't cry, parents: Kindergarten is cool! | work=USA Today | date=16 August 2001 | accessdate=13 March 2016 | author=Blais, Jacqueline}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web | url=http://www.ilenecooper.com/about.htm | title=About Ilene Cooper | work=Ilenecooper.com | accessdate=13 March 2016}} 4. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/lake-forest/lifestyles/ct-hpn-go-ilene-cooper-tl-0430-20150424-story.html | title=Children's author chronicles history of women in politics | work=Chicago Tribune | date=27 April 2015 | accessdate=13 March 2016 | author=Ingram, Bruce}} 5. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/06/09/the-teen-whisperer | title=The Teen Whisperer | work=The New Yorker | date=9 June 2014 | accessdate=13 March 2016 | author=Talbot, Margaret}} 6. ^{{cite web | url=http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2012-05-18/entertainment/ct-ae-0520-john-green-award-20120518_1_youtube-video-copernicus-solar-system/3 | title=Author John Green wins Tribune's Young Adult Literary Prize | work=Chicago Tribune | date=18 May 2012 | accessdate=13 March 2016 | author=Johnson, Steve | pages=3}} External links
