Lynda Barry - Career in Comics

Career in Comics

After graduating from Evergreen she moved to Seattle. When she was 23, the Chicago Reader picked up her comic strip, enabling her to make a living from her comics alone. She later moved to Chicago, Illinois.

Barry's early work was rendered with pen and had a distinctly New Wave, '80s look.

In her latest books, One! Hundred! Demons! and What It Is, she works with color and collage.

Barry has moved her line of comics primarily onto the web.
