arthurworldwide.com Critical Praise Marc Brown hen my three sisters and I were growing up near Erie, Pennsylvania, our grandmother Thora told us the most wonderful stories. Back then I never dreamed I would grow up to tell stories of my own," says Marc Brown. "But when my first son, Tolon, was born, I started telling him stories every night before he went to sleep. Most of the stories were about animals. One night our story was about an aardvark who hated his nose. The aardvark, of course, was named Arthur, and that story became Arthur's Nose , the first book in the Arthur Adventure series." Now, there are more than twenty books in the series. And, out of the Arthur series grew a series of books based on Arthur's little sister, D.W. What began as a simple family ritual soon grew into a full-time profession for best-selling children's author and illustrator Marc Brown. Trained at the Cleveland Art Institute, he went on to create more than one hundred picture books for children. Before his current success, however, Marc worked at many jobs, including stints as a truck driver, soda jerk, actor, chicken farmer, television art director, short order cook, and college professor! Most of the characters in Marc Brown's books are modeled after one person or a combination of people from his life. Many characters were inspired by people he knew when he was growing up and going to school in Milcreek, Pennsylvania. Mr. Ratburn is based on the "meanest algebra teacher ever," and Grandma Thora is based on Brown's real grandmother Thora, "the best storyteller ever." Says Brown, "Buster is modeled after my best friend in elementary school, Terry Johnson, who was a real practical joker. Terry spent a lot of time in the principal's office. In third grade, I spent a lot of time watching a girl named Patricia DelPorto instead of doing my math. She had curly hair and long eyelashes. On Valentine's Day, I remember waiting to get a valentine from her. She is, of course, Sue Ellen, and that's where I got the idea for

20. BROWN, MARC - Educational Paperback Association Features the story of brown's life in the author's own words, along with a list of all his works. http://www.edupaperback.org/authorbios/Brown_Marc.html

BROWN, MARC November 25, 1946- Author and Illustrator of: Arthur's Nose, etc. I'VE HAD many jobs before writing and illustrating books, such as truck driver, short-order cook, soda jerk, television art director, actor, costume and set designer, college professor, and gentleman farmer; and there is a funny story that goes with each job. All have helped my books directly or indirectly. All the characters I write about are people I know. Arthur is part me and part my sons, Tolon and Tucker. Francine is a combination of two sisters, Bonnie and Colleen. Mr. Ratburn is modeled after a former teacher of mine who does look like a rat. I went to college and art school for five years and had a scholarship for graduate school in 1970, but decided to enter the real world instead. That was the year I illustrated my first book, What Makes the Sun Shine, by Isaac Asimov. Not long after that I discovered I could tell stories to amuse my son at bedtime. That's how Arthur happened. The Arthur books are always the most fun to work on, and with each new book I come to know Arthur and his friends a little better. To me Arthur is real.
