Gregory David Weisman, a renowned creative force in the world of animation, was born and raised in Woodland Hills, California, where he was surrounded by a loving family consisting of his parents, a younger sister, and a younger brother, Jon Weisman. After completing his higher education, Greg embarked on a journey to New York City, where he secured a job at DC Comics, working on notable titles such as Captain Atom. This initial foray into the world of comics eventually led him to return to his hometown of Los Angeles, where he pursued further education.
