About Us
- Rob Baddorf, Author/Illustrator -
Jar of Lightning houses creative projects that inspire awe and wonder and invite readers of all ages to play and explore a world full
of mystery, drama, and beauty.
​
Rob Baddorf, publisher and author, has been drawn in since he was seven years old toward the thrills of the supernatural interacting with the natural world, finding glee in B-movies of the fifties, and fascinated by... giant robot's titanic battle, cold war threats, close encounters, & nuclear meltdowns on American soil. Shaped by his 1970's childhood, Baddorf has never quit playing with action figures and squeezing into his underoos.
​
His brilliant & beautiful wife, Carolyn (who wrote all this), helps in the business department. She tethers Rob to reality, keeping him from floating off to a planet filled with apes or to a college science lab where Kurt Russell has really cool superpowers.
