Daniel Clowes

Daniel Clowes was born and grew up in Chicago before attending the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY. His career as an underground comic began to take of when his first Lloyd Llewellyn story was published in 1985. He soon began the periodic comic collection Eightball, which spawned several full-length graphic novels, including Ghost World and Art School Confidential. Both of these novels he adapted into screenplays, and for his adaptation of Ghost World he was nominated for an Academy Award in 2001. He is currently an illustrator for The New Yorker and lives in Oakland, CA.

Walking from the Harvard Square T station: 10 minutes

As you exit the station, cross Mass. Ave. and proceed along Brattle St. Follow Brattle St. as it curves to the right in Brattle Square (follow the sidewalk on the right side of the street). The Brattle will be on the left-hand side of the street. The building is shared with Algiers Cafe and Alden & Harlow Restaurant, and the theatre entrance is on the left side of the building—look for the sidewalk poster case and marquee.
