Shaun Tan was born in 1974 and grew up in the northern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. In school he became known as the 'good drawer' which partly compensated for always being the shortest kid in every class. Shaun has won many awards for his picture books and illustration including: the NSW Premier's Literary Award for The Arrival and The Red Tree; the Ditmar Award for Best Artwork for The Lost Thing; and the World Fantasy Award for Best Artist.
