Steve Wolfhard is a Canadian artist who is best known for being a writer and storyboard artist on the animated television series Adventure Time.
Steve Wolfhard grew up in central Ontario, Canada and graduated from Sheridan College's Classical Animation program in 2003. After graduating, he worked as a character designer for the series Being Ian, and Kid vs. Kat. Wolfhard also did illustration work for a series of graphic novels for children entitled Zombie Chasers.
Wolfhard first started working on Adventure Time as a storyboard revisionist during the show's third season. Series creator Pendleton Ward offered him a position as a storyboard artist, bu Wolfhard initially turned it down; he later changed his mind, and contacted Ward to see if he would be able to rescind his rejection of the offer. Ward allowed him to, and Wolfhard was then partnered with Tom Herpich for seasons five through nine.
In January 2017, he announced that he will be writing and storyboarding on the new Cartoon Network series, Summer Camp Island, set to premiere in 2018.
Steve Wolfhard's work on Adventure Time gained him a Primetime Emmy Award nomination along with his then-storyboarding partner Tom Herpich for the fifth season episode "Be More".
