Although my hair is more salt than pepper, my wife, Monica, frequently complains that I act like a child. Fortunately, clients including Children’s Television Workshop, Scholastic, Parents Magazine Press, Groliers, and the Pennsylvania Library Association don’t seem to mind. I’ve illustrated over 30 children's books and my work has been published in magazines ranging from the New York Times Book Review to Sesame Street Magazine.
My graphic memoir, Mendel’s Daughter (Free Press/ Simon & Schuster) a true story about my mother’s survival in the Holocaust, was ranked number eight in Entertainment Weekly “10 Greatest Graphic Novels”.
Two Cents Plain: My Brooklyn Boyhood (Bloomsbury USA) a memoir about growing up in the 1950s was selected as one of the best memoirs of 2010 by Kirkus Reviews.
I look forward to creating children’s illustrations for you... That is, in between annoying my better half.
