AUTHOR-ARTIST BIO

His books have received starred reviews, multiple Junior Library Guild Gold Standard selections, been picked for ALA/ALSC lists, shortlisted for state book awards, and have appeared on numerous Best Books of the Year lists. When not working on books, he makes whimsical paintings and public art in his Seattle studio. www.VikramMadan.com @ArtByVikram

He spent many years working in the tech industry before finally founding the courage to follow his heart into living the creative life as both a professional visual artist and author-illustrator. He currently lives, paints, draws, writes, exhibits, and creates public art in the Seattle area. Past honors include editorial cartooning awards from the Society of Professional Journalists and the Washington Press Association, and even a movie-making award from the Seattle Times. www.VikramMadan.com @ArtByVikram
