About Me:
Maggie Dahlstrom is a twenty-five year old trans woman and a queer comics researcher attending Ohio State University to study English education. She obtained a BFA in motion pictures with a specialization in animation from Wright State University where she also worked in a library. Maggie has been reading comics since she was five-years-old and one of her earliest memories involved locking herself in the bathroom for hours to read Jeff Smith's Bone in its entirety.
