Age range 6 to 14' I would love to be a teacher because I love children and I think that not enough people respect children or understand how important they are. I have done many projects with children of all ages. ' - Keith Haring From Matthew Burgess, the much-acclaimed author of Enormous Smallness, comes Drawing on Walls: A Story of Keith Haring. Often seen drawing in white chalk on the matte black paper of unused advertising space in the subway, Haring' s iconic pop art and graffiti-like style transformed the New York City underground in the 1980s. A member of the LGBTQ community, Haring died tragically at the age of thirty-one from AIDS-related complications. Illustrated in paint by Josh Cochran, himself a specialist in bright, dense, conceptual drawings, this honest, celebratory book honors Haring' s life and art, along with his very special connection with kids.
Matthew Burgess is an Assistant Professor of English at Brooklyn College. He is the author of Slippers for Elsewhere, a poetry collection, and Enormous Smallness: A Story of E. E. Cummings, his first children' s book with Enchanted Lion Books. Matthew edited an anthology of writing and visual art titled Dream Closet: Meditations on Childhood Space, and currently he is editing a collection of imaginative writing prompts for a forthcoming book with Teachers & Writers Collaborative. Matthew has been teaching poetry in New York City elementary schools since 2001.
