Marion Arbona was born in France in the early eighties. After obtaining an animation film diploma from the Ecole Nationale des Arts Decoratifs of Paris, she settled in Montreal. Thanks to a pair of good winter boots, she endures the cold weather and devotes herself to her art. She has illustrated more than thirty children's books, including, most recently, Sam's Pet Temper, and her work has been honored in several international competitions.
