Bill Schelly
Generally, when I write biographies, I gravitate toward underdogs. People who haven't been properly or fully considered for the greatness of their work or contributions. So I want to wake the world up!! This motivates me a great deal. Other times, publishers have asked me to write books. Gary Groth of Fantagraphics Books suggested I write a definitive biography of Harvey Kurtzman. Since I had been a fan of his since I was 11 years old--reading the old MAD paperbacks--I immediately warmed to the idea.
