Creator and writer of the critically-acclaimed graphic novel "Marlow", and "Kid Lightspeed".
After receiving his Master’s from the University of Chicago, Aaron began pursuing writing as a vocation. His enormous appetite for stories was fed copiously as an undergrad at St. Mary’s College of California where he read The Great Books and translated Ancient Greek literature. It was there that Aaron began to seriously consider the nature of stories and the ideas behind them. The ancient Greek tragedies and 19th century science fiction are huge influences on his writing.
