About the Books
“Where To Find A Ghost” is a new chapbook collection of drawings and stories depicting locations around Dallas where “historic events of calamity and tragedy” have occurred. It will be sold separately and as a special set with “House Of Giller," composed of drawings Brad made, over several years, of the home of his friend and local artist, the late Susan Giller, and a new edition of “Nine Days With LiHua,” which chronicles nine days of cat-sitting a mysterious feline in New York City.

About the Author
Brad Ford Smith is a visual artist and art conservator living in Dallas. His work explores a wide variety of topics, from the influence of dyslexia on sight perception, to tongue-in-cheek pseudo-science exhibitions under the guise of the Nomadic Fungi Institute, and his current focus, drawing local spots of historic and cultural significance which have often morphed into urban detritus.
