Michael was born in Atlanta, Georgia, and lived there with his wife and daughter. He illustrated several picture books, including Dawn's book Harriet's Horrible Hair Day. He is known for his airbrush technique and playful illustration style. Michael greatly enjoyed library and school visits where he enthusiastically demonstrated his art, inspiring others to explore their creative side.
Dawn had fun working with Michael to create Harriet's Horrible Hair Day. A fun fact, Michael asked Dawn if he could include his dog in the illustrations for the book. (The story originally featured only the childrens' pet cat.)
Michael received his Associates of Art Degree from The Art Institute of Atlanta. His artwork has been displayed in many galleries including the Hudgens Center for the Arts.
Sadly, Michael passed away on May 4, 2021 at the age of 61. He died peacefully in his sleep.
