About the Author
Bentley Boyd drew Chester the Crab for the Daily Press of Newport News, Virginia, from 1995 to 2008. He has also drawn elephants and donkeys as a political cartoonist, and long ago in his own classes he drew his teachers (none of them as elephants or donkeys or crabs). Bentley studied History and Literature at Harvard University and drew for the college newspaper in the distant 80s. He would draw Batman but finds drawing skyscrapers boring. Bentley lives in Williamsburg, Virginia, with his two sons -- who love Star Wars even more than he does.
