About the Facilitator

Jim Benton is the award-winning author and illustrator of more than thirty books, including the New York Times best-selling series DEAR DUMB DIARY, CATWAD, FRANNY K. STEIN, and CLYDE as well as the 3/4 of a billion dollar international licensing hit, IT'S HAPPY BUNNY.


Jim's books have sold more than fifteen million copies worldwide, been translated into more than fifteen languages (and Braille), and have garnered numerous honors (like five top LIMA awards, American Librarian Association Top Picks, Addy awards, Eisner nominations, Reuben divisional awards, an Inkpot award and an Eleanor Cameron award).
He is a TV and film producer, a joke writer, a screenwriter and his work has appeared in The New Yorker, Mad Magazine, and hung in the gallery of The Society of Illustrators.


You can find his published works with Scholastic, Simon & Schuster, Mad Cave, DC, HarperCollins, Macmillan and more at www.jimbenton.com. You can also find his work tattooed on the skin of fans. But this is harder to access and generally requires asking permission.
