As an instructor at The Center for Cartoon Studies since its founding in 2005, long-time cartoonist/writer/editor/publisher Stephen R. Bissette has been privileged to witness (and, at times, participate in) the creative process of various cartoonists as they created work that focused on their own personal health issues and histories. Bissette offers an illustrated overview of the path, perils, and potential inherent in the creation of such intensely intimate and introspective works.

Author of the book, "Scattered: My Year As An Accidental Caregiver" and host of The Agewyz Podcast on caregiving and healthy aging. Presentation will be a mix of PPT and audio clips from interviews I've done with guest of the podcast talking about death and dying. Folks can talk with me about how digital media can give greater exposure to the work of graphic artists whose work draws attention to healthcare issues.
