Christopher Luna's Current Biography article about Bill Griffith appears on the cartoonist's offficial website


I am using Bill Griffith's superb graphic novel memoir, Invisible Ink: My Mother's Secret Love Affair with a Famous Cartoonist, in my Summer memoir writing class at Clark College. I have been collecting Zippy the Pinhead comics for two decades, and love its surreal social commentary. I sent the students the link to Griffith's bio from his official website so that they could learn more about his background and career. I later realized that Mr. Griffith had posted the profile I wrote about him for Current Biography in 2001 as his official bio. 
Thank you so much, Bill Griffith! I'm proud to know that you were happy with the piece I wrote, and honored for my writing to appear on your website.
