Biography:

Schmid's father was himself a caricature artist, working for Disney for many years, and Schmid picked up the skill from him. "He trained me," Schmid said. "We worked together for about 20 years." The pair worked at various events, creating caricatures in the style of Mort Drucker, the famous Mad magazine cartoonist and caricaturist. Schmid said his grandfather was also an artist. "Art has been in my blood for centuries," he said.
Background: Born in Hollywood in 1949, Schmid's family traveled often before buying property in Marin. He joined the Sausalito rock 'n' roll scene during "hippie times" and his old band, Old Gray Zipper, is part of a display at the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. He attended the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland and then became an apprentice. "That was my strongest learning tool," Schmid said. "I still feel that's the strongest way to learn something."
