Patricia Jeres has been an incredible presence in my professional life. I met her almost seven years ago and she immediately took me under her wing. Patty first broke down the door to DC comics for me, then, she did it again, as part of a chorus of voices that got me my first work at Vertigo.

Now she’s on the advisory board of Prism Comics, a non-profit organization that advocates for LGBT issue awareness in comics.

She was recently interviewed during Pride Week at the Bristol Comic Con. You can listen to a streaming audio here.
