About Me
- Name: Jim Woodring
- Location: Seattle, Washington, United States
I was born in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California and enjoyed an exciting childhood full of poetry and paroniria among the snakes, rats and tarantulas of that enchanted realm. I eventually grew into an inquisitive bearlike man who has had three exciting careers; garbage collector, merry-go-round-operator and cartoonist. Some of my work is collected in THE BOOK OF JIM, THE FRANK BOOK and SEEING THINGS (all published by Fantagraphics) and in various toys, fabrics, prints and urban legends. Thank you for your interest.

I'm excited to learn that this volume is in the works.
It took me a while to find the link to the site where we can support Jim's work. Here it is:

Nice to see Fran giving it to Frank a bit.

Jim, one of your frogs seems to have gotten out. I'd know it anywhere.
isn't it time to announce that the goal was reach?
...wait for it...ED. "Reached".
I also lived in The San Gabrial Valley... La Puente,CA. I was just going though and reading other blogs when I came upon yours.. I was so surprised to see you lived in the same place I lived so many years ago. And that now you live in Seattle, as well as I. Funny how things are in this world..
For some reason, this blog makes me happy... lol
