Aaron Bihari illustrated both Drugs from Worms and It’s All in the Numbers. He was born in New York City and has lived in various locations around New England, Brazil, and Canada. He studied physical theatre, playwriting, contemporary dance (for the degree), and contemplative arts, and has worked as an actor, librettist/lyricist in musical theatre, information architect at web firms, art director at a small publishing house, and freelance designer. After years on these paths his secret desire to draw pictures and explore colour, pattern, and texture all day is no longer such a secret, and he has now become an illustrator. <www.aaronbihari.com> <www.i2iart.com>
