Ethan Persoff Biography

Ethan Persoff is one of the most popular and richest Archivist who was born on November 22, 1974 in Denver, Colorado, United States. Persoff’s website is recognized for its archive of scanned files of rare and unusual comics. The available titles on the site vary from the mundane, such as travel comics and educational booklets, to the disturbing, including comics that focus on drug use and racism. Socially conscious work is included as well, including a scan of the 1957 comic book Martin Luther King and the Montgomery Story. In 2006, Persoff acquired an original copy of the comic (indicating only a handful of copies were then known to exist), scanned it, and posted it on his blog for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. In 2008, Persoff reported that the Cairo director of the American Islamic Congress (AIC) had translated the scanned comic into Arabic and Persian. The AIC’s HAMSA (Hands Across the Mideast Support Alliance) initiative printed 2,500 copies of the translated comic, distributing them throughout Algeria, Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait, Lebanon, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, and Yemen. When the Egyptian Revolution of 2011 broke out, U.S. Representative John Lewis spoke on MSNBC, stating “over 200,000 copies have been translated into Arabic and distributed through Egypt,” and credited the mass-distribution of the 50-year-old comic as a contributing element in the Egyptian protests. Persoff mentioned the scanning and uploading of the document, and its subsequent role as source images for a peace campaign, to be “a good story about the value of putting things online, waiting 5-10 years, and seeing where they end up.”

Since 2013, Persoff has been working on a comics biography with Scott Marshall of underground journalist John Wilcock. The strip is serialized on the website Boing Boing, and has been recognized by Print, The New Yorker and New York magazines.
