On a Claire Day
Encyclopedia
On a Claire Day is an internationally syndicated comic strip
created by Henry Beckett
and Carla Ventresca
and launched in 2006.
It is based around the life of fictional character Claire Bennett, an insecure and naive young woman, who has left her parents' home to live on her own. She is accompanied by her dog Bradley and visits frequently with Sammi, her elegant, financially-savvy, and impatient best friend; Jeff, her guy's guy neighbor, who's happy working construction and doesn't understand Claire's ambition or life issues; her "out there" Oprah-fanatic mom and her "work hard or you're worth nothing" dad; and the perfect neighbors, Pasha and James, who seem to do everything with an ease and flair Claire can't achieve or imagine possessing herself.
On a Claire Day is distributed by Creators Syndicate
in Los Angeles. It runs in many newspapers around the country and is being developed into a television show.
