My drawing comes alive for the first time

Perhaps like many New Yorker cartoonists, I always wanted to see my drawings animated. A few weeks ago, through the group PinkSlip Animation (of which I am a member), one of my drawings has come to  life!  Mike Milo, a very talented and experienced animator, said he would animate my sequential drawing. I did the drawing for Revolvingfloor.com, and now it is live! Note that the sound plays automatically, something that is going to be fixed soon.

It’s titled: The Sock

Cartoons on WomensEnews

The standard for reporting on women’s issues worldwide is upheld by the site womenseNews.org.  They cover issues and concerns about women around the world, and no one compares to them. I feel fortunate to have joined their roster of amazing writers and correspondents as a contributor of cartoons. Here is my second cartoon for the site. I also feel honored to be a cartoon contributor next to one of my cartoon heros, Nicole Hollander.

On Humor and Feminism

The new blog, No Country for Young Women, transcribed my speech at Omega Institute and features it on their home page today. The creator of the blog is the wonderful filmaker Elena Rossini. You can find her work on The Illusionists website and her website.

Here is the link to the transcipt, and a few of my cartoons. I will post the video of the speech soon.
