BiographyWoolfson grew up in Vermont,[1] and pursued playwriting in college.[2] After moving to the San Francisco Bay Area[3] and making a short film – he also works as a video editor – he turned his attention to writing comics, as a more practical medium for him to be able to tell the stories he wanted to write. His first comic was titled "A Shot in the Dark", which Woolfson describes as a "magic school rescue story".[2] His first long-form work was Artifice, which he serialized on his blog Yaoi 911, before publishing it in print. Illustrated by Winona Nelson, it's the story of an android assassin who falls in love with the young man his owners assign him to kill.[4] The book was a finalist for a Lambda Literary Award for LGBT Graphic Novel in 2014. Woolfson followed up on this in 2012 by beginning The Young Protectors, an ongoing superhero story illustrated by Adam DeKraker, with colors by Veronica Gandini (a 2011 Harvey Award nominee).[2] This series is about a teenage, closeted gay superhero (a member of the titular team) who finds himself in a conflicted relationship with a middle-aged gay supervillain.[3] He has published a print collection of the first part of the series as The Young Protectors: Engaging the Enemy. He has financed the publication of print volumes through Kickstarter, reaching the funding goal for the first Young Protectors volume in less than 24 hours.[5] References1. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.out.com/entertainment/popnography/2012/03/23/alex-woolfson-winona-nelson-graphic-novel-artifice-kickstarter|title=Action Comics Have a New Gay Hero: Deacon|date=2012-03-23|access-date=2017-02-11|language=en}} 2. ^1 2 {{Cite news|url=http://comicattack.net/archives/84288|title=Bento Bako Lite: "Artifice" Webcomic Interview with Alex Woolfson|date=2012-04-04|newspaper=ComicAttack|access-date=2017-02-11|language=en-US}} 3. ^1 {{Cite web|url=https://queerscifi.com/announcement-the-young-protectors-engaging-the-enemy-kindle-by-alex-woolfson/|title=Announcement: The Young Protectors: Engaging the Enemy (Kindle), by Alex Woolfson – Queer Sci Fi|website=queerscifi.com|language=en-US|access-date=2017-02-11}} 4. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.theatlantic.com/sexes/archive/2013/04/the-sci-fi-comic-book-that-portrays-gay-romance-as-completely-normal/275178/|title=The Sci-Fi Comic Book That Portrays Gay Romance as Completely Normal|last=Berlatsky|first=Noah|newspaper=The Atlantic|access-date=2017-02-11|language=en-US}} 5. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.comicsbeat.com/interview-gay-superheroes-and-kickstarter-success-with-alex-woolfson-and-adam-dekraker/|title=INTERVIEW: Gay Superheroes and Kickstarter Success with Alex Woolfson and Adam DeKraker|date=2013-05-30|newspaper=The Beat|access-date=2017-02-11|language=en-US}} External links
