Mike Luckovich wins second Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning

Congratulations to Mike Luckovich for winning the Pulitzer Prize – Again! You can see his submission portfolio online.

Atlanta Journal-Constitution editorial cartoonist Mike Luckovich earned journalism’s top honor Monday, winning a Pulitzer Prize.

It was the second Pulitzer for the popular but polarizing cartoonist, whose social and political commentaries regularly provoke sharp reactions from readers.

“This is just so great,” Luckovich said during a newsroom celebration after the award was announced. “I love what I do.”

The winning entry included cartoons from 2005 whose topics ranged from Hurricane Katrina’s devastation to the media circus around runaway bride Jennifer Wilbanks.

The other two nominees were Marshall Ramsey of the The Clarion-Ledger of Jackson, Miss. and Mike Thompson of the Detroit Free Press. Their submission portfolio can be found here and here respectively.
