38. R. Crumb Biography 2

How to learn Robert Crumb's life story part 2:

4. Watch the movie CRUMB by Crumb's friend Terry Zwigoff



5. Read The R. Crumb Handbook by Crumb and his friend Peter Poplaski


6. Read Your Vigor For Life Appalls Me
(Robert Crumb Letters 1958-1977)
(optional)



By this time you will have a pretty good idea of how Crumb's life went. We hope it goes without saying that you should have already read all of his strips and found the clearly autobiographical stuff yourself.

Upcoming posts here will reveal some of the more obscure autobiographical stuff, as well as more about the 2 books and the film shown above.
Stay tuned!
