Sarah ByamSarah Byam's earliest memory is of the 1967 Detroit summer uprisings. She has witnessed the deep kindness and cooperation, as well as the crime and violence, present in America's cities. She studied writing at Northern Michigan University and art at ayne State University's Center for Creative Studies. While living in Detroit, she met the great artist/writer William Messner-Loebs and his wife Nadine. They brought her to her first comics convention in Chicago, where her career began.

Sarah has written comics, poems, short stories, posts, novels, marketing material, slogans, screeds, and holiday stories for friends and family. She considers creating Billi 99 with Tim Sale to be the best of her work and only wishes she could do it again. She lives in Seattle with her husband where they are ruled by two precocious cats. It is universally recognized that she cannot make cookies, but her baklava is not too bad.
