biostuff about the artist
Dirk van Stralen lives in Vancouver with his partner, much-lauded Jake’s Gift actor and writer Julia Mackey. An award-winning cartoonist and illustrator, Dirk divides his time between doodling and acting in theatre. A four-time Jessie Award nominee (Vancouver’s own version of the Tony’s), Dirk will next be seen in Midnight Theatre Collective’s A Man for all Seasons and The Woodsman at Pacific Theatre. His second wordless kids book (another collaboration with dear friend Daniel Wakeman), Ben’s Bunny Trouble, has just been released by Orca Book Publishers.http://www.dirkvanstralen.com/http://www.juliamackey.com/http://www.pacifictheatre.org/productions/2007-2008/man-for-all-seasons/index.htmhttp://www.pacifictheatre.org/productions/2007-2008/woodsman/index.htmhttp://www.orcabooks.com/http://www.intrepidtheatre.com/shapeimage_4_link_0shapeimage_4_link_1shapeimage_4_link_2shapeimage_4_link_3shapeimage_4_link_4
