Chicago Cabby and USSR Ex-Pat Dmitry Samarov Book Talk (SF)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Dmitry Samarov was born in Moscow, USSR in 1970. He immigrated to the US with his family in 1978. He got in trouble in 1st grade for doodling on his Lenin Red Star pin and hasn’t stopped doodling since. After a false start at Parsons School of Design in New York, he graduated with a BFA in painting and printmaking from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1993. Upon graduation he promptly began driving a cab—first in Boston, then after a time, in Chicago. Dmitry will talk about and read from his two recent books Samarov’s Old Style and All Hack. He will be interrogated by Ben Terrall, producer of the cult ‘zine Namaste Motherfu**er.
