I came out of a decorated career (OK, I was thrown out) in magazines (articles editor of Playboy; VP/Editor of Men’s Health; editor of BACKPACKER) to sell/write/ghost three NYT bestsellers in the health field. And then the pandemic hit. Bad for health! So rather than write anybody else’s book this time, I wrote and illustrated my own. I also got busy on other fronts, landing a gig combining narrative + drawings + laughs for the Colorado Sun, a high-profile e-newspaper with 20 million+ page-views a year. My recent column was the most opened Sunday 'toon in the Sun's history. Plus I'm a culture/humor/illustrator/animator/commentator with NPR in northern Colorado. Hey, it worked for David Sedaris, and he can't draw a lick!
