About this event
Cowles Library is proud to partner with Beaverdale Books to host a free event with Stephan Pastis, creator of Pearls Before Swine. The popular, nationally syndicated comic strip appears daily in the Des Moines Register.
Pastis will share Pearls Jubilee, his most explosive Pearls Before Swine book yet. It celebrates the strip with selections of his funniest, most controversial, and most heartwarming strips along with fan mail and author commentary.
Stephan Pastis is an attorney turned cartoonist. A graduate of the University of California Berkeley, and the UCLA School of Law, he worked as a lawyer before trying his hand at cartooning. He lives in the Bay Area with his wife and two children.
