Paul J. Livingston is an actor, illustrator and novelist (jack of no trade). Mr Livingston is better known as Flacco, a character he has played for a dozen years (under the illusion that he has an independent life). Prior to this he studied art (drinking), but left college after becoming disillusioned with the academic system (failed). He then pursued a career in animation (but never actually caught it), before being lured (he was pushed) into the peripheral vision of the public eye (largely ignored minor celebrity).

Mr Livingston lives alone and prefers it that way (alienated, dogless sociopath). He is the author of The Flacco Files.
