Editorial cartoonist Etta Hulme has died

Etta Hulme, the cartoonist for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram has died at the age of 90.  Etta was a kickass cartoonist and a hoot in person.  Although I haven’t see her for several years, she used to regularly attend our AAEC conventions.  I can still picture her smile whenever she walked into the room.

Humor’s Edge opening -2004

My exhibition at the Library of Congress opened ten years ago today.

You won’t find a more dedicated group who understand and value editorial cartoons than the people in the Prints and Photographs division at the Library of Congress. They’re incredibly knowledgeable about the art form and its role in American history and are devoted to preserving and protecting the original art.  To have the Library of Congress interested in adding my work to their collection was an amazing honor and an experience I’ll forever treasure.

Calder, Lautrec, and Feiffer

One of the things I love best about living in Washington DC is the ability to just take a short walk down to the Mall and see the latest museum exhibition.  My favorite ones (so far) were the Alexander Calder and Toulouse Lautrec exhibitions  at the National Gallery of Art and the Jules Feiffer one at the Library of Congress.
