Andrew Boyd
Activist and author
A pioneer of viral activism, Andrew was one of the driving forces behind Billionaires for Bush and the Million Billionaire March. He founded, and for several years directed, the arts and action program at United for a Fair Economy. His writing has appeared in the Nation, the Village Voice and several anthologies on recent social movements. Andrew is the author of The Activist Cookbook, a source book on creative direct action, as well as two ironically serious (or is it seriously ironic?) books published by W. W. Norton: Daily Afflictions and Life’s Little Deconstruction Book. Last year he was chief “idea girbil” at Working Assets. This year he’s wholesaling hazmat suits: www.quarantinewalmart.com
