Annie LaVigne is a Boston-based artist and founder of Harriet and Mickey, Ink., an illustration studio dedicated to storytelling through animation, paintings, drawings and prints. Annie received an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Maryland in 1995, which she has since combined with her interest in art to make several short, animated films.

Most recently Annie has focused on illustration as a story-telling medium. Her works are filled with quirky, imaginative characters living out small dramas. She also teaches animation at Rhode Island School of Design. Samples of Annie’s work can be viewed on her studio’s website, www.harrietandmickey.com.

Harriet and Mickey are artistic guides of a sort, and are 
characters in an upcoming children's book about a visionary mouse.
