Biography

Khalid Birdsong is a cartoonist, caricature artist, and teaching artist living in California. He has experience doing live caricatures at hotels and events in Orlando, Florida, and corporate caricature illustrations online and remotely.

Khalid's passion is visual storytelling, and he has spent over twenty years creating comics with characters of color to entertain and inspire audiences.

Khalid loves to travel. After spending two years living in Osaka, Japan, teaching Junior High School students English, fully understands what it’s like to be a “fish out of water” as a Black male.

Khalid chronicled his adventures overseas in a humorous webcomic entitled “Fried Chicken and Sushi” that ran on his website www.friedchickenandsushi.com for four years.

For seven years, Andrews McMeel syndicated the kid version, “Little Fried Chicken and Sushi,” online through their GoComics website. Read regular updates running twice weekly on www.gocomics.com.

You can find his book collections of the original FC&S comics, “Livin’ In Japan Ain’t Easy!” and “Livin’ In Japan Still Ain’t Easy!” on amazon.com. If you want to become a patron of the arts, you can support Khalid on Patreon at patreon.com/birdsong.
