Jamie Smith
Said to be “afflicted with an unremitting sense of the absurdity” Jamie Smith is the creator of the cartoon features “Nuggets” and “FreezeFrame”, which have been appearing weekly in the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner (Sunday edition) since 1988.
Originally from Western and Central New York, he grew up hiking the forests of the Alleghany, Catskill and Adirondack mountains before migrating to the Interior of Alaska, where he has trekked across much of the state on long-distance solo backcountry trips.
He currently teaches studio art classes in drawing at the University of Alaska Fairbanks and also does freelance illustration out of his cabin, when not busy playing with the cats.
He has three volumes of self-published collected works, and is working on several book-length projects - two new volumes of collected works will be released this spring by Ester Republic Press and a line of casual wear and collectables will also debut.
