Career

Following an unsuccessful run with his first comic strip, Nuts and Bolts, Winick was cast as a member of The Real World: San Francisco in 1994. His roommate on the show, Pedro Zamora, was HIV-positive, and through Zamora's teachings about the disease, the two became close friends.

Following Zamora's death, Winick wrote and drew the graphic novel Pedro and Me: Friendship, Loss, and What I Learned, published in 2005. It earned lots of praise within and beyond the comic book community, winning awards from GLAAD, Publishers Weekly and other organizations.

In subsequent writing for Green Lantern and Green Arrow, Winick introduced gay and HIV-positive characters to storylines, which also won GLAAD awards.

Winick continues to work with DC Comics. In 2000, he married Pam Ling, a cast member he met on The Real World.
