Matt Faulkner's first work of art was "Portrait of a Dog," etched into the oak kitchen table when he was five. Fortunately his parents were the forgiving types, and Matt's art career blossomed.

Matt graduated from Rhode Island School of Design and has done work for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Forbes Magazine. Matt is also an award-winning children's book author and illustrator. He has illustrated twenty-nine books and written and illustrated seven more since he began his career back in 1985, including Thank You, Sarah (Simon & Schuster), Gaijin: An American Prisoner of War (Disney-Hyperion), and Because I Could Not Stop My Bike. Matt is married to author and librarian Kristen Remenar.
