- Breve biografia
- Glynnis Fawkes is a cartoonist and illustrator.
She says on her website: I am currently working on a graphic adaptation of Eric Cline’s 1177 BC The Year Civilization Collapsed for Princeton University Press, to be published in 2024.
Charlotte Bronte Before Jane Eyre, in the Center for Cartoon Studies Presents series, was published in September 2019 by Disney/Hyperion. Also in September, Secret Acres published Persephone’s Garden, a collection of autobiographical comics that have appeared in The New Yorker and other places.
I began working on excavations as illustrator in 1998 and have worked on sites in Greece, Crete, Turkey, Israel, Cyprus, Syria, and Lebanon. My illustrations have been published in man books and articles.
A Fulbright to Cyprus in 1999 led to the publication of two books in 2001, Archaeology Lives in Cyprus (Bank of Cyprus) and Cartoons of Cyprus (Moufflon Press)
Many of my personal comics reflect a career in archaeology and family life. Greek Diary is about working on a dig and traveling with children and won the Society of Illustrators MoCCA Arts Festival Award in 2017. My drawings about my children were published regularly on Muthamagazine.com and were nominated for an Ignatz Award at the Small Press Expo in 2016.
Another project, Alle Ego (out of print for now) is about my first trip to Greece and how it launched my work in the direction of archaeology. A draft of this book won the Society of Illustrators MoCCA Arts Festival Award in 2016. I drew most of it during a residency at La Maison des Auteurs in Angouleme in 2015. I returned for another residency in 2018 and was set to go again in 2020.
In 2019 I joined the faculty at the venerable Center for Cartoon Studies in White River Junction, VT.
