Event Organiser: Melbourne Rare Book Week

Join artist Georgina Chadderton, author of Oh Brother: A Graphic Memoir (Penguin Random House), for a behind-the-scenes look at the process of making a graphic novel. You’ll hear how she went from working on photocopied minicomics in Adelaide to being internationally published in four countries. Georgina will talk about how friendship, family, disability and Vegemite toast have all played a part in creating her graphic memoir. She’ll share early drafts, childhood photos, and the complicated feelings that come from growing up with an autistic sibling who requires substantial support.
