I’m Michael, a former actor/writer who came to comics late in life. Not as a career move. For the creative autonomy. I write about life with ADHD and pop culture obsessions.
I’m a teaching fellow at SAW where I host events. I have 2 short books in the works and a graphic novel in my crosshairs.

Hi Ho comics friends!
Subbing for Tom tonight as host of the Friday Night Workshop presented by the Sequential Artists Workshop. I bet some of you will appreciate the timely theme. Nicole’s last workshop felt healing and inspiring.
Hope you’ll join us!

For the last 4 years I’ve been the moderator of a Lynda Barry inspired workshop at SAW. After working through Making Comics, I formed an offshoot group called Promptapalooza where we meet biweekly to tackle 4-minute prompts drawn directly in ink. It’s become an essential comics-adjacent practice.

In 2018, I rebooted my art education 37 years after graduating from the High School of Art & Design and giving up on art.
One of my first Instagram posts was this watercolor portrait I began at a local art center.
It was a step toward reclaiming something important that I lost along the way.

An imaginary conversation with Jules Feiffer drawn in 2021 for the Year Long Program at SAW.
Feiffer’s influence runs like a ribbon through many chapters of my life, from my theater days to making comics.
Thank you for everything, Jules Feiffer, and good night.
