  1. Congratulations to Dick Locher for his induction. His passion for cartooning is second to none and his fire still burns brightly even after many decades of effort. I was fortunate to work with him years ago, along with two other greats in Chicago Tribune history: the late Jeff MacNelly and Wayne Stayskal.

  2. This is a man that’s truly deserving of this induction. In 2000 I won the John Locher Award that Dick and his wonderful wife, Mary, award together annually. He has single handedly inspired me and influenced me to be the cartoonist I am today. If I had not won the award in 2000, I probably would have lost passion for editorial cartooning. He welcomed me into a community of cartoonist with open arms and has proven that he’s at the top of his class. Thanks Dick. Congratulations.

  3. Well said, Justin. Well said. I think if I hadn’t won the award in 1998 (ten years ago….yikes!) I wouldn’t be the cartoonist I am today either. Many young cartoonists have been inspired by the award and it has been a bright spot in an otherwise dismal profession. Congratulations, Dick!
