_______________________________________________________________
Stuart Carlson, the editorial cartoonist of the Milwaukee Sentinel from 1983 to 1995 and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel from 1995 to 2008, has created a witty and original cartoon (above) on a very current topic to benefit the UWM Golda Meir Library.
Carlson's cartoons are distributed nationwide by the Universal Press Syndicate. His work has been printed in the New York Times, Newsweek, and The Washington Post. In 1991, the National Press Foundation selected Carlson as the "nation's best cartoonist." In 1995, he was awarded the John Fischetti Editorial Cartoon Award.
Carlson donated a collection of his work to the UWM Libraries' Archives in September 2008. The collection consists of an estimated 5,000 drawings covering local, state, and national topics, including race relations, military conflicts, popular culture and political scandals.
For information about viewing the collection, contact the Archives Department at 414-229-5402.
