Zareen Choudhury is a Bangladeshi American cartoonist, humorist, editor, and educator based in San Francisco.
Using her distinctive comedic voice, Zareen’s comics and writing range from explorations of chronic illness to homages of her favorite pieces of media to satirical takes on the techno-fascist-capitalist machine. Her work has been featured in The New Yorker, McSweeney’s, and The Nib, and showcased at the Cartoon Art Museum and Charles M. Schulz Museum.
As a comics educator and editor, Zareen supports cartoonists in telling the best versions of their stories, with a particular interest in traditionally underrepresented narratives. In 2025, she taught the monthly Chronic Illness Comics Club at Crucial Comix and was the editor of Tired AF (Crucial Comix), a comics anthology inspired by the workshop. She previously served as Managing Editor of Children of 1971, a storytelling platform for the Bangladeshi diaspora, and Communications Manager of the App Inventor Foundation.
Zareen holds a Comics Intensive Certificate from the Sequential Artists Workshop as well as a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering & Computer Science from MIT.
