JW. consignment. Shelved []. Brad Meltzer was born April 1, 1970 and has had an eventful career. A very successful writer, he has won awards for his Justice League of America comic books and has been on the bestseller lists for various works including the "Ordinary People Change the World" series, of which "I am Amelia Earhart" and "I am Abraham Lincoln" stood at the top. Meltzer is credited as being partially responsible for finding the missing American flag raised at Ground Zero of the World Trade Center on 9/11, being the one to unveil it at the National September 11 Memorial & Museum in New York. Meltzer is also notable for preserving the house which Superman was created in, founding the Siegel & Schuster Society named for Superman's creators and auctioning the story of the house for $100,000 which went further towards it's maintenance. Meltzer has cited former president's Bush and Clinton as fans of his works, even being one of four authors to entertain at Barbara Bush's 90th birthday party. Christopher Eliopoulos was born September 30, 1967 in Queens, New York. He is known as a prolific letterer, in particular for his work on the Savage Dragon comic series which he hand-lettered on request by the comic's creator Erik Larsen, who preferred the look to the now commonplace computer-generated fonts. Eliopoulos would go on to design the fonts for Marvel Comic's in-house computer lettering unit, as well as contributing lettering work to Valiant Comics and DC comics. He did illustration and writing work for Dark Horse comics on some Star Wars stories. Eliopoulos is also well known for his comic strip Desperate Times who's art style is greatly inspired by Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes comic series, the art of which also inspired his illustration work on the "Ordinary People Change the World" series. "Ordinary People Change the World" is a children's book series which focuses on various historical figures and their lives and contributions to the world. There are 36 entries in the overall series with 3 books on the DC superheroes Wonder Woman, Superman, and Batman, and several compilation books. The first entry, "I am Amelia Earhart" and third entry "I am Abraham Lincoln" would stay at the top of the bestseller lists for children's books of 2014, the rest of the series remaining highly popular. 1384939.
