Kay A. Haring

This picture-book biography traces Keith Haring’s lifelong habit of drawing. Encouraged by his father, he doodles as a child, saves for art supplies, and gives away paintings in high school. In college, teachers question his individual style and subjects. After moving to New York City, he places art on walls and in subway stations, then donates money earned from paintings.
