I've been cartooning since the age of eight. Right after graduating from USC Cinema I began writing and animating for Sesame Street. Most of my career has been in the service of children, with film series such as Sooper Puppy, What Tadoo, and the Wizard of No and the feature film Twice Upon A Time. I've earned several Emmys for my work in television including NBC's Buster & Me, the Discovery Channel's Bingo & Molly, and a PBS Special called Kids, Cash & Common Sense. I created the San Diego Chicken, originally for KGB Radio. I've made rounds in hospitals and psyche wards as a volunteer Clinical Cartoonist and for many years taught cartooning at the Charles M. Schulz Museum where I get to inspire the next crop of eight-year-old cartoonists.
