Deborah A. Fox

In 2016, Fox created her first graphic novel, blending her talent as a storyboard artist in the movie and TV industry, and her love of writing. "Everett Massacre" earned a Washington Museum Association Award of Excellence, and a William F. Brown Award for Historic Preservation.

Inspired by the success of "Everett Massacre", Fox wrote a second graphic novel, "The Man Who Beat Death Valley". For three years, she crossed the country and hiked desert canyons to photograph images for this project. Fox's newest graphic novel captures the beautiful landscape of the West and tells a compelling true story with cinematic flare.

"The Man Who Beat Death Valley" has won a National Indie Excellence Award and a North Street Book Award, and received outstanding reviews by Kirkus, San Francisco Book Review, Midwest Book Review, and Writer's Digest.

When she's not booked for speaking events, she enjoys hiking, cycling, and camping with her husband.
