Van Jenson: Local Graduate -- Local Author

January 18, 2010

We always hear about "local student makes good", but Van Jensen, son of Tim and Jean Jensen, is a true testament to this cliche.

Van Jensen grew up in Lewellen, Nebraska, and graduated from Garden County High School in 2000. He holds a journalism degree from UNL and worked as a newspaper reporter in Little Rock, Arkansas before moving to Atlanta. 

In 2009, SLG Publishing released Pinocchio, Vampire Slayer, a graphic novel written by Jensen. A sequel will be released in 2010. 

 Copies of the book are available in Lewellen at the Most Unlikely Place, or online through Amazon @  http://www.amazon.com/Pinocchio-Vampire-Slayer-Dustin-Higgins/dp/1593621760.

More information on Jensen is available through his Web site http://graphicfiction.wordpress.com/.
