Tania del Rio graduated from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design with a BFA in animation. In 2003, her manga entry, “Lovesketch,” was selected to appear in TOKYOPOP’s Rising Stars of Manga Anthology, Volume 2.

Additional work for Archie includes art and writing on Sonic the Hedgehog, Josie and the Pussycats, Cheryl Blossom, and stories featuring the rest of the Archie gang. She’s also done work for Marvel, and her popular webcomic www.mypoorlydrawnlife.com is now available as a 400-page book. Currently she’s working on a tutorial book on character design for Focal Press and a middle grade novel, Warren the 13th and the All-Seeing Eye, was published on November 24 through Quirk Books.
