Don Rosa, born Keno Don Hugo Rosa in Louisville, Kentucky in 1951, is an American comic book writer and illustrator best known for his Disney comics about Scrooge McDuck and the other Duck family characters. Many of his stories are built on characters and locations first created by the cartoonist Carl Barks. Between 1987 and 2006 he produced roughly ninety stories, including the twelve-chapter The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, which won the Eisner Award for Best Serialized Story in 1995.
