George Blevins has called Colorado’s Front Range his home for over half his life, moving in the early 1980s. He says the time in his adult life before then “hardly seems to count, especially since I’m 85 and I don’t remember all that stuff very well.”
Before Colorado, Blevins grew up in rural Louisiana. As a child, he and his parents lay in bed together every Sunday morning to read The Sunday Funnies from The Sunday Times. Those comics, particularly Pogo, instilled a lifelong passion for Blevins. From then on, all he wanted to do was find opportunities as a cartoonist for comic strips.
