Drawings From the Heart

"As we celebrate Tomie's 75th birthday, we look forward to many more years of inventive stories filled with heart motifs and other symbols readers have come to expect and enjoy. His innovative mind and restless energy will undoubtedly go on supplying new and attention-grabbing ways to continually lend vitality to his books. The backdrops he devises, the characters he costumes, and the stories he tells will entrance readers for generations to come, and they will be swept away onto stages rich with story and artistic delight. Happy Birthday Tomie!" from "Theater on the Page" by Barbara Elleman, Guest Curator.
