Matt Groening
Matt Groening spent his child life in Portland, Oregon USA. His father was a Cartoonist and a film producer of surfing films. He had a mother called Margaret, a father called Homer and two little sisters called Lisa and Maggie. This is where the Simpson characters got their names. He grew up watching TV sitcoms like “Leave It To Beaver” about a boy called Beaver who got up to all sorts of adventures; “Aussie and Harriet” and “Dennis the Menace”. When He became a teenager he started to draw Charlie Brown from Peanuts as he read them so frequently. These were his first cartoons. At School he was an under achiever. He got terrible test results and unfair grades. So he swore never to take another test again. He was very lucky, as he found a college with no tests or grades and he studied what he wanted when you wanted. This was the Evergreen State College. All the great art and music minds went there and Matt started real cartooning. He had friends there who also cartooned and so he was not unusual in any way.
