Biography
Pénélope Bagieu was born in Paris in 1982. In 2007, she created the blog Ma vie est tout à fait fascinante, in which she humorously portrayed the everyday life of a young Parisian woman. Her success soon extended into publishing with the character Joséphine.
In 2010, she published her first long-form graphic novel, Cadavre exquis, followed by California Dreamin’ in 2015. In 2016, she released Culottées, which was translated into twenty languages, won an Eisner Award, and was adapted into both an animated series and a stage production.
She went on to adapt Roald Dahl's The Witches (Sacrées Sorcières) into a graphic novel in 2020, before exploring autobiographical storytelling with Les Strates in 2021.
