Signe Wilkinson, a political cartoonist for the Philadelphia Daily News and later the Philadelphia Inquirer from 1985 through 2020, will talk about (surprise!) cartooning from Ronald Reagan through Donald Trump. She will share samples of her work on all the “non-controversial” issues of the day–guns, race, abortion, the environment, education, etc. There will be plenty of time to question her about all her mistaken beliefs.  

 

Wilkinson is the first female cartoonist to win the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning (1992) and was once named "the Pennsylvania state vegetable substitute" by the former speaker of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. Her many awards also include a Visionary Woman Award from Moore College of Art & Design, four Overseas Press Club Awards, and two Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Awards for Cartooning.
