To my wife, Julie, for picking up all the slack while I worked
on this book. And for my daughter, Bea, who makes
all sacrifices seem worthwhile.
—Tim
To my parents, Richard and Denis Kelly, for their never-ending support, love,
and care. And for letting me stay up late
to watch more cartoons and scary movies.
—Barry
My portion of this book is dedicated to my Father, William Daniel Rosson
M.D., for being my first and best art teacher, for his ever-present
encouragement and support, and for setting me
on the path to success with an artistic career.
