Aaron Boyd

Aaron Boyd knew by age five that he wanted to be an artist. Inspired by artists inside the pages of children’s books at his local library, by age six he knew what he wanted to do with his art: make children’s books. After graduating from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, Aaron practiced his craft in children’s magazines and board games before illustrating his first picture book in 1999. Since then, Aaron has illustrated dozens of books and begun writing and illustrating his own stories. Aaron illustrated The Story of Civil Rights Hero John Lewis and the Wisconsin Historical Society Press title Brownie the War Dog.
