Dana Claire Simpson grew up in and around Seattle. She always liked drawing, and always liked comic strips. She drew her first one at age 5; it was called “Boo,” and was about easily frightened, narcoleptic ghosts.
She kept drawing, and while attending The Evergreen State College, she was a finalist for the Scripps-Howard Charles M. Schulz College Cartoonist Award. During those years, she created one of the first web comic strips, “Ozy and Millie,” which she would draw for 10 years, amassing a devoted cult following. She also worked as a freelance editorial cartoonist, her work appearing regularly in several newspapers and in the magazine Funny Times.
In 2009, she won the Amazon/Andrews McMeel Syndication Comic Strip Superstar Contest, which landed her a contract to develop what would become Phoebe and Her Unicorn for syndication.
She lives in Santa Barbara, CA, with her spouse and her cat.
