Finally, two shorter pieces illuminate the  bookends of a legendary career: “The Day I  Became a Professional” —which will appeal to any hopeful young artist—describes Eisner’s first  rejection from a potential publisher, and “A  Sunset in Sunshine City” provides a poignant  portrait of Eisner in old age. The book features famous characters from the world of comics (under pseudonyms, of course) and other historical  figures and family members, all drawn with  Eisner’s characteristic mastery and technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eBorn in New York City, \u003cb\u003eWill Eisner\u003c\/b\u003e (1917–2005) was the author of the legendary comic strip \u003ci\u003eThe Spirit\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as fifteen graphic novels and three influential instructional textbooks.
