Archer Biggs

Archer is a preschool teacher, artist, author, and YouTuber. He learned art at Waldorf school. He hand paints in watercolors, oil-based pen, pencils, and crayons for children. Archer studied creative writing at Cornell, and played rugby and rowed. He earned qualified teacher status at Cambridge University in England, and he rowed and ran track. Archer teaches and coaches, most recently at Westside Waldorf School in Los Angeles and in Newport Beach. He rows every day in California.

Archer loves teaching and writing for children because they light up like candles with awe and wonder. They “ooh” and “ah” at pictures and stare at them, rapt. They remember characters like members of their own families. They will bring a book everywhere like a friend. Archer loves telling stories to children because they are the most engaged and reactive crowd. Even adults grow an ear-to-ear smile when they see or remember their favorite children’s book.

Children treasure ideas and lessons learned from books and movies, and they often shape the rest of their lives.

Archer is seeking representation and a publisher for the completed and illustrated manuscript of “Boris the Rhinoceros.”
