Victoria Ying is a critically acclaimed author and artist living in Los Angeles. She started her career in the arts by falling in love with comic books, which eventually turned into a career working in animation (on Tangled, Wreck-It Ralph, Frozen, Paperman, Big Hero 6, and Moana) and graphic novels like City of Secrets, City of Illusion, and Hungry Ghost. She loves Japanese curry, putting things in her shopping cart online and taking them out again, and hanging out with her dopey dog.
