Michael Allan Scott Company Profile
Born and raised at the edge of the high desert in Kingman, Arizona, my earliest influence was my mother. From before I could walk, she read me to sleep, launching me on amazing adventures almost every night. Immersing me in a world of fantastical characters living in magical lands. Ozma of Oz in the Emerald City, Winnie the Pooh, Gerald McBoing-Boing, Cat in the Hat, Kipling’s Mowgli, Mole at Toad Hall—all served to fire my imagination very early on. I soon hungered to create those worlds for myself, curious to know how to draw, to read, to write.
