Cass Frayer

Cass can often be found with a pen in hand and a podcast playing. When not drawing, you can often find Cass out exploring the Bay Area with her beloved dog, Eli. Growing up as a gender queer kid, most of her stories involve a quirky protagonist who never quite fits in. Cass has always had a passion for children’s books and her work celebrates the play between finding connection and being yourself. Cass’ career has not been a strait line but rather a series of explorations. Cass earned her MFA in illustration from University of Hartford in 2010. Cass is inspired by vintage illustration and tiny found objects.
