Schulz and Peanuts excerpt in this month’s VF

SnoopyThe October Vanity Fair has an excerpt from Schulz and Peanuts: a Biography, by David Michaelis. So far it’s only available in the magazine; look for the issue with Captain Steubing Nicole Kidman on the cover.

Here’s a link to the site promoting the book. Michaelis also wrote a biography of the Wyeth family, which I highly recommend.

    I had the opportunity to personally meet and to get to know Charles Schulz years ago through the San Diego Comic-Con (I was one of the con’s founding members). I’d have to say that everything you have read about this man being one of the kindest, friendliest and most gentle men in the business is absolutely 100% true!! I believe is is just one reason why his work is still loved today by so many people, even those who don’t read comics on a regular basis.
