March 5th: Using Autobiography in Graphic Novels at Housing Works NYC
I'll be waxing semi-autobio comix and reading "DUMBO," a comic I did about the time someone mistook me for a thief during a film shoot and went vigilante on my ass with his car!

The Cartoonist in Comics: Using Autobiography in Graphic Novels
Tuesday, March 5 at 7:00pm
Housing Works, 126 Crosby Street, NYC
Free!
These four cartoonists more than put themselves into their art, but become their cartooning, directly reflecting their lives and personalities in their work.
Geek Week 2013 gets an injection of semi-autobiographical cartoonists Dean Haspiel, Bob Fingerman, Laura Lee Gulledge, and Ethan Young for a panel moderated by Christopher Irving, where they’ll get to the core of why they put themselves into their stories. The panel kicks off with quick readings of their work, and an informal round table talk about the ins and outs of semi-autobio cartooning.
