Paula Polie

Born from the creative partnership of Anne Baraou and Fanny Dalle-Rive, Paula Polie made her debut in 2003 within the pages of Une demi-douzaine d'elles, a Modern Age work from the distinctive French publisher L'Association. She's one of a memorable ensemble — sharing her world with the likes of Michèle Roman, Suzie Bébé, Ugoline Saine, Véra Haine, and Armelle Naïve — suggesting a richly peopled, character-driven universe. With a run stretching to 2009 and a home at one of France's most celebrated independent comics houses, Paula belongs to a tradition of thoughtful, auteur-driven storytelling that rewards curious readers willing to look beyond the mainstream.
