Clay Boura 

Clay Boura is a loving husband and father of three residing in The Mitten State. At an early age, Clay developed a love for the arts. Whether he was creating new cartoon characters or writing wild, imaginative stories, he knew that someday art would become a part of his future. And over the years, his love and passion for the arts has continued to grow.

Originally, Clay’s dream was to become a cartoonist and have his very own cartoon strip in the newspaper alongside the famous Charles Schulz (Peanuts), Jim Davis (Garfield) and Bill Amend (Fox Trot) whom he idolized.

However, after becoming a father and seeing how much enjoyment his children got when he read them bedtime stories, he decided he wanted to become a children’s author and illustrator. Becoming a published Author quickly became Clay’s dream and he focused all his time and energy on accomplishing that dream. And through the love and support of his family and by staying motivated and focused on his goal, Clay was able to achieve his dream when he published his very first children’s book, Leave it to Beamer Presents: Don’t Let the Cat Out of the Bag, on January 6th, 2015!
