Yes, I do all the illustrations as well as write the stories and conduct the research. The books came out of my website, The Infinite Baseball Card Set, which I started back in 2010 after my father passed away suddenly. He and I had a great relationship and would talk several times a week about baseball and odd ball characters that played the game. When he died, I was living in Hollywood, and none of my friends like baseball, let alone the history of the game, so I had no one to talk to about characters like Benny Kauff or Memo Luna. So late one night I started this little blog on which I drew a simple baseball card. Because the players were not well known, I had to write their story to make it interesting, and before I knew it people were coming to the site.
Over the years the stories and drawings have become more involved. I still write the blog as well. Keeps me off the streets at night...
