Biography
Chiodo was born on January 22, 1958, the youngest of four boys and raised in San Jose, California. He graduated from Andrew Hill High School in 1975.
He traveled to various places such as New York and Los Angeles, where he worked for a diverse client base, doing book covers, and other work for toy companies, games, and comics, eventually settling in San Diego.
