Peaco Todd

Peaco Todd’s teaching career spanned nearly thirty years, first as an assistant professor of management and humanities at Lesley University and then as a professor of liberal studies at Union Institute and University. An appreciation for the absurd inspired her involvement in the annual Ig Nobel Award Ceremony, and her love of words, images, and humor evolved into a career as a cartoonist, author, and prize-winning poet. Current projects include a graphic memoir about growing up with a severely depressed mother and a series of cartoon features about climate change.

She’s sailed from Spain to Dubai aboard the Rogue Wave, and most recently traveled to Africa to join those working to end poaching of endangered elephants, rhinos and other iconic animals. She created Earth Comix, a 501(c) educational organization; its comic books highlight efforts to end poaching of endangered elephants, rhinos, and iconic animals also threatened by climate change. She illustrated Rickey Gard Diamond’s award-winning book Screwnomics, rediscovering the role of economics in women’s lives.
