About author Mark Armstrong

I grew up in Cooperstown, NY, the famous Home of Baseball.

I'm the oldest of six.

I was a math major in college.

I once lost an apple eating contest to a dog.

I self-syndicated a comic strip called Saintly Anthony for seven years.

I started out as a magazine gag cartoonist. My best customer was TV Guide.

I was an extra in the movie Jumanji, starring Robin Williams. I wound up on the cutting room floor.

A client once sent me a half-pound of fudge to help "keep me going" on a big assignment.

One of my favorite children's books is The Five Chinese Brothers.

I once drew caricatures at a 3-day business expo, a total of 21 hours. My arm fell off at the end (just kidding).
