Stephanie McMillan was born in 1965 in Fort Lauderdale, FL, and decided at age ten to be a cartoonist. She earned a BFA in animation from Tisch
School of the Arts at New York University, and was an activist for many
years around issues such as police brutality, war, reproductive freedom
and immigrant rights. She began drawing a weekly cartoon for a local
newspaper in 1992, and self-syndicated Minimum Security in 1999. Her
award-winning cartoons have since appeared in dozens of publications,
books and comics exhibitions worldwide. Her cartoon collection, Attitude Presents Minimum Security, edited by Ted Rall, was published by NBM in 2005. In early 2006, one of her more controversial cartoons generated hundreds of angry phone calls to a misogynist South Dakota senator and was auctioned for $2100 as a fundraiser for two women’s health clinics. A graphic novel about the environmental crisis, co-created with writer Derrick Jensen, is due out in the fall of 2007 by Seven Stories Press.
