Christine Tyler Hill
Christine Tyler Hill is a crossing guard and illustrator based in Burlington, Vermont, best known as the creator of The Cloud Report, a hand-assembled monthly newsletter zine documenting her observations from her crosswalk post. She launched the publication in late 2024 and grew it to roughly 2,000 paying subscribers at $8 per month, generating approximately $14,000 in monthly revenue. A Wall Street Journal profile published in March 2026 brought her wider recognition as an example of hyper-niche physical media generating meaningful independent income.
