Alexander Lagos

Alexander Lagos was born in Elizabeth, New Jersey.   His mother, a champion archer and tango dancer, and father, a draftsman and wood sculptor, emigrated, from the South American country of Uruguay.  The Lagos family, including his older brother Joseph and two other siblings, made their home in the New York metro area where they lived for ten years before moving to Houston, Texas.  Artistic expression was encouraged by his sculptor father, and at an early age Alexander showed an affinity toward drawing and storytelling.  Alexander illustrated and wrote his first comic book at the age of six and continued creating characters throughout high school where he collaborated with a group of art students to create a full length unpublished graphic novel. He went on to develop his talents in advanced art and creative writing courses. 

During his twenties, Alexander channeled his artistic energy into poetry, songwriting and performance.  He formed the alternative music group FEEL with the intention of delivering relevant social  messages including racial and religious tolerance.  The band’s accomplishments include the release of two full length albums and a radio EP, touring the country opening for national bands and receiving radio play for the songs All Rise and Self Portrait.  Alexander’s lyrics and poetry were influenced by leaders and scholars such as Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Gandhi, Jiddu Krishnamurti, and Joseph Campbell.

After leaving the band, Alexander returned to his first love-- writing and illustrating stories.  In 2001, Alexander moved back to the east coast, managed an independent book store and began building his career as a writer in Brooklyn, New York where he currently lives.

Joseph Lagos

Joseph Lagos was born in Montevideo, Uruguay and immigrated to New York/New Jersey at the age of two with his family.
Joseph attended St. Anthony of Padua Catholic School in Elizabeth, New Jersey where he first discovered a passion for writing stories and was encouraged by the teaching staff of nuns to pursue the craft tenaciously and “not keep your light under a bushel basket”. 
When Joseph was fourteen, his father moved the family, to Houston, Texas and established a fine furniture and woodcarving business in the 70 year old family tradition.  Joseph entered the family business as an apprentice and achieved the title of Master Craftsman 20 years later.  Writing, however, continued to be a passion and the many tedious hours standing behind the carving bench were, compensated by flights of imaginative storytelling, late into the night, with pad and pen.  
In addition to writing and sculpture, Joseph’s interests include sailing, bicycling, archery, walking, and playing with his Yellow Labrador, Toby.
Joseph Lagos lives with his wife and children in Houston, Texas.
