He has swum with sharks, met wild bears, and sailed to the moon (all without letting go of that same crayon). In between these adventures, he worked at Pixar Animation Studios building 3D worlds for movies like Coco, Up, and Inside Out. The Society for Children's Books Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) awarded him a Portfolio Showcase Honor in 2014. Tony now lives, works, and plays in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he writes and illustrates books for kids. The Greatest Adventure is his first picture book.
