Dana Zimmerman

Illustrator of "Sticks" by C.J. Swan

My love for art began when I was just shy of 2 years old. I was the strange little kid that would rather sit and draw than play with toys. I’d spend hours looking through the art in children’s books, then escape into the stories of my own imagination with the help of some paper, markers and colored pencils. I even recreated the comic strips in the newspaper and the illustrations from my library books.

My passion for drawing and painting continued through junior high and high school. Now — after earning an Art and Illustration degree at John Brown University — I get to bring stories to life that will fascinate, entertain and maybe even inspire young readers in the same way.
