Gallimard Jeunesse Description

Romuald was born in 1976 in Paris. Fascinated by the books and cartoons of his childhood, he was soon taken by an insatiable desire to draw and invent stories. He graduated from the Estienne School of Graphic Arts. He then realizes his other "kid's dream" by becoming a firefighter, but can not help but return to drawing. After a few years working in the field of video games, he now devotes himself to his own editorial projects. Between two drawings, he likes above all to run in the forest and to travel.
