Marc Brown, who was born in Erie, Pennsylvania in 1946, received great encouragement and support from his grandmother and uncle。 Inspired by the books of Maurice Sendak, Brown decided to pursue his ambition of becoming an illustrator。 After receiving a B.F.A。 in painting from the Cleveland Institute of Art, he worked as a TV art director, a professor of mechanical drawing, and a freelance illustrator, before becoming a writer。 In his books, he addresses the fears and problems which children face and events like friendship, family, school and pets。 For his illustrations, Brown uses pencil with watercolor on a variety of papers to achieve different visual effects。 The “Arthur”series, about the everyday adventures of a lovable aardvark, began in 1976 and continues to this day with 25 titles published。 Brown has also created other series such as the “Rhymes” series, and the nonfiction“Dinosaur” series, which conveys messages of do’s and don’ts。 These
