About the Author
Gary Jeffrey, from Clacton on-Sea, Essex, UK, was a boy who grew up wanting to be an artist. Which worked okay for ten years until the pressing needs of a burgeoning family forced the young dreamer to nut up and get a job.
He ended up working as a graphic designer for a small non-fiction children's book publisher in London, UK. Part of his job was adapting biographies and history into comics. Over the course of a decade writing and story boarding these comics he grew to love the medium and became excited by its possibilities.
He decided to make something of his own and, voila--he now makes true crime comics in his spare time! Bonnie and Clyde--The Beginning (McFarland, fall 2013) is the first published of these -- check it out (but bear in mind all my other books are for 11 year-olds!)
