Grant Snider began drawing and writing before he knew what he was doing. Soon it was too late to stop. He is the author of Nothing Ever Happens on a Gray Day, One Boy Watching, What Sound Is Morning?, and What Color Is Night?, among other wonderful books. Snider lives with his wife and kids in Wichita, Kansas, where he also practices orthodontics. You can often find him carrying a sketchbook, lost in his own thoughts.
