Red and Rover: A Boy, A Dog, A Time, A Feeling
After attending Ohio State University, where he lampooned state and student politics as a political cartoonist for the school paper, Brian Basset landed a "tryout" as an editorial cartoonist for the Seattle Times, a job which lasted 16 years. In 1994, he began to devote himself full-time to his comic strip Adam. A self-professed "retro" kind of guy, Basset launched Red and Rover in 2000. He lives and works outside of Seattle, Wash.
