Eric Drooker's drawings and posters are a familiar sight in the global street art movement, and his paintings appear frequently on covers of the New Yorker.

Born and raised in New York City, he began to slap his images on the streets as a teenager. Drooker's reputation as a social critic has grown over the years and has led to countless editorial illustrations for the Nation, the New York Times, the Progressive, etc.

His first book, Flood! A Novel in Pictures won the American Book Award, followed by Blood Song, soon to be a major motion picture. After designing the animation for the film, Howl, he was hired by DreamWorks Animation. 

His art hangs in numerous collections including the Whitney Museum of American Art, MoMA, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Library of Congress. He appears frequently at universities, and is available for slide lectures.
