Courtney Johnson

Courtney Johnson is a cardiac surgery physician assistant who lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with her husband, Cory. In her free time, she likes to travel, garden, bake bread, and run her nonprofit foundation, Cooper’s Ice Cream Crew.  

The idea for Signs from Super Cooper came to Courtney after her three-month-old rainbow baby, Cooper, passed away on New Year’s Eve 2024. His cousins couldn’t grasp how a perfectly healthy and happy baby boy could die. Courtney wanted to write a book that spoke about baby loss and how those who have passed continue to shine light and live in our hearts in many ways. She hopes Signs from Super Cooper helps other families, and especially small children, who are dealing with this kind of unimaginable loss. Courtney now lives to keep Cooper’s memory alive and share his beautiful short life and legacy with everyone she meets.
