About this title

Synopsis

Dogman: Part dog, Part man. All magic. Have you ever wished you could "unsee" something? This compilation of illustrations all have one theme: Dogman. Originally drawn with a child's chalk on a sidewalk in north Minneapolis during the summer of 2008, Dogman has intrigued, amused, and confused all who have since laid eyes on him. This book is a collection of crude drawings of Dogman by Rob Hudson, drawn over a period of seven years. (Editors note: most of Rob’s sketches were drawn during the 6&10pm evening news –“usually during weather,” Rob says). Each of the drawings is accompanied by a famous quote, relating to dogs...or were they really talking about Dogman? You decide. Whether Dogman is crudely resembling a smattering of semi-obscure celebrities, some friends of Rob Hudson, or proudly showing off a new litter, you'll agree these simple drawings are hilarious or just plain disturbing.

About the Author

Raised in a hard-scrabble, tough, lower-middle class neighborhood in Elk River, Minnesota, (locally known as Uppertown), Rob Hudson grew up surrounded by such bizarre and unbelievable characters (Bappy, Tink, Grub, Oz, Goofy), you'd think he'd write a book about it. But he didn't. Instead, he gives the world Dogman. After high school, Rob tried pursuing his ambitions of being a hockey player (he was a goalie-go figure) and had stints with both the Austin Mavericks and Waterloo Blackhawks of the United States Hockey League (USHL). Upon graduating from St. Cloud State University, Rob began a long and award-winning career as a television news and sports anchor, producer and personality. After 26 years and several stations across the country, Rob resigned from television rather unexpectedly and set to writing his first book. He currently lives in the upper Midwest with his wife, Rebecca, and daughter, Presley.
