Riggs had collected curious vernacular photographs and approached his publisher, Quirk Books, about using some of them in a picture book. His work on short films for the Internet and blogging for Mental Floss got him a job writing The Sherlock Holmes Handbook which was released as a tie-in to the 2009 Sherlock Holmes film. He later studied film at the University of Southern California. He studied English literature at Kenyon College in Ohio, where he was a good friend of John Green. Riggs was born in Maryland in 1979 on a 200-year-old farm, and grew up in Florida, where he attended Pine View School for the Gifted.
