Special to the Daily

Richard Cowdrey, a New York Times best-selling illustrator, is in Summit County this week with a book-signing appearance at The Next Page Books & Nosh in Frisco scheduled for 4:30–5:30 p.m. today.

The signing at 409 Main St. will follow a sold-out special event, also at the book store. That won’t be the end of Cowdrey’s time in Summit, as the famed illustrator will also visit the Summit Rotary Club at 7 a.m. Tuesday to give the club members a chance to create their own masterpiece.

Additionally, Cowdrey will be stopping by local elementary schools to share his journey in becoming a successful artist with students, walking them through the illustration process step by step.



Cowdrey has illustrated books such as “Bad Dog, Marley,” “Frosty the Snowman,” “The Guardian’s of Ga’Hoole” and “Fiona, The Hippo,” in addition to producing artwork for the NFL, NHL, American Kennel Club, Ducks Unlimited, Focus on the Family and others.
