Adam Bessie is an assistant professor of English at a Northern California community college, where he teaches reading, writing and literature courses, including one devoted to the graphic novel. Before this, Adam was briefly a public high school teacher (and his wife currently teaches social studies in a public high school). He has published essays on education, comics and culture in a wide variety of sources, including Truthout, The Washington Post's "Answer Sheet" and Daily Censored. Though Adam has written about comics, including interviewing Dan Archer for a Truthout story on graphic journalism, this is his first comic. He is also finishing a chapter on fighting against the corporate takeover of public education in "Project Censored 2013"  (Seven Stories Press), to be published this fall.
