John Steinbeck won the Nobel Prize for literature on this day in 1962.

If you are teaching with his novel The Grapes of Wrath, bring it into the present by combining it with documentary film Greener Pastures, which explores the lives of four contemporary Midwestern farming families. It's a great insight into how much has changed and how much hasn't.

Met Artist Tim McEwen at Oz Comic Con, the creator of Greener Pastures.

This comic takes me back to my high school days, so naturally I bought all the issues he had available on his desk.
