The series was highly acclaimed and won numerous awards, including an Eisner, a National Book Award, and the Coretta Scott King Award. Working with creators Andrew Aydin and Nate Powell, Lewis told the story of his life up through the passage of the Voting Rights Act. All of these experiences were recounted in the three-volume graphic novel series March, starting in 2013.

Representative Lewis was also a member of the Freedom Riders, a group of activists who helped challenge segregation laws in the early 1960s. This group was behind the 1963 March on Washington, a watershed event that is credited for leading to the passage of the Civil Rights Act a year later and the Voting Rights Act in 1965. John Lewis, who passed away last July, was one of the “Big Six” - a group of civil rights leaders who included Martin Luther King, Jr, and Roy Wilkins among their number. The early life of the late Congressman and Civil Rights activist John Lewis was chronicled in the award-winning series March and now a follow-up graphic novel, titled Run, is scheduled to debut this August from Abrams Books.
