My friend and award-winning graphic novelist Brian Fies is interviewed about his book A Fire Story. Brian talks about his experience in the fire, which destroyed his California neighborhood and creating the book.
Here's Brian:
"Here's a podcast I did with my friend Jennifer Gray Thompson about the firestorms of 2017, which destroyed my home among many others and which I wrote about in my graphic novel "A Fire Story."
"Jennifer heads a great organization called After The Fire USA, which was formed as a direct result of our fires. The nonprofit goes to communities after they suffer large-scale disasters like ours to share what we did right, what we did wrong, and what we've learned in the meantime to help them toward recovery. It also lobbies for legislation to help disaster survivors, and is in general a good resource for anyone who's been through something like we experienced.
"Many thanks to
Jennifer for having me on her podcast, and to her and After the Fire USA
for the important work they continue to do!"
