Jim Terry is a Ho-Chunk storyteller who’s called Chicago his home for the last ten thousand years or so. His graphic memoir “Come Home, Indio” was nominated for an Ignatz and was a finalist for the LA Times Bookprize. His comic-book essay “Paper Cuts”, done in residency at The Newberry Library, is currently being taught in several schools and he has worked as a comics illustrator for almost two decades with everyone from Marvel to Heavy Metal. This August his prose will be published in the anticipated “Never Whistle At Night 2: Back For Blood” and he just completed the feature length film “Shank”.
