Best known for his award-winning Maus: A Survivor's Tale, Art Spiegelman is profiled in this inspirational biography. Spanning his early involvement in the comix underground to his latest work in the New Yorker and beyond, it explores Spiegelman's influences and themes, many of them dealing with his own family's history. Also explored is Spiegelman's major influence on the comic's scene from the 1980s to the present day. In addition, the author traces the origins of the comic book and its growing importance in American popular culture.
