He was born in 1948 in Stockholm, Sweden. Three years later, he and his parents, survivors of a Nazi concentration camp, moved to New York. In the 60s, he began working as an illustrator for the Topps Chewing Gum Co. in the GARBAGE PAIL KIDS series and created autobiographical underground stories, among which PRISONER OF THE HELL PLANET stands out, where he illustrates family reactions to his mother's suicide. In 1978, he created the magazine RAW, a publication that serves as a refuge for all those North American and European authors whose work does not fit in the popular market. It was in RAW where he introduced his most famous work: MAUS. He is a professor at the School of Visual Arts in New York and has illustrated publications in NEW YORK TIMES, PLAYBOY, VILLAGE VOICE, and the weekly THE NEW YORKER.
