Gérard Frischeteau has fond memories of the first box of crayons he ever owned. Born in France, he now lives in Montreal, Quebec, where he is a well-known animator, commercial artist, and illustrator.

A true perfectionist, he is committed to thorough research that brings authenticity to each of his works.
