Editorial cartooning Interviews video

Etta Hulme interviewed

Daryl Cagle has posted a short interview with Etta Hulme, the most widely syndicated female editorial cartoonist.

Says Cagle:

Etta is a charming, talented, grandmotherly character and her cartoons are just as warm and charming – in sharp contrast to the harsh, younger cartoonists.

Indeed. I enjoyed the video clip and hope the larger documentary is aired.

  1. It is nice to see the cartoonist behind the cartoons, so I guess that’s the point. The interview didn’t really go anywhere … or is this just a portion of it?

  2. The clip is from “Trailblazer: The Editorial Cartoons of Etta Hulme.” It was a documentary by E.K. Miller and it was screened in Lexington, KY during the AAEC convention.

  3. Ah, that explains it! Thanks Charles!

  4. Etta is one of the most under-appreciated cartoonists around.
    Her work is great. She deserves a Pulitzer.

  5. Nope. The only women cartoonists to ever win Pulitzer are Signe Wilkinson and Ann Telnaes.

  6. I think Etta has been nominated for the Pulitzer, but I’m not absolutely certain about that.
    I’ve known Etta for a couple of decades, and she’s one of my favorite human beings on the planet. The most wonderful person you’ll ever meet.

  7. Just from this small glimpse she seems like a combination of Aunt Bee (sp) and catwoman. Is that even close?

  8. More like Mrs. Butterworth meets exhumed Billy Martin.

  9. I searched the Pulitzer Prize web site and, as unjust as it may be, Etta Hulme has not won a Pulitzer, nor has she ever been a nominated finalist.

  10. “More like Mrs. Butterworth meets exhumed Billy Martin.”
    LOL.

  11. I was sorry to hear that she was in the hospital. I have been enjoying her editorial cartoons for some time, and missed her when she didn’t show.

    I was surprised when I saw her picture, as I had a totally different person in mind.

    Get well soon, and begin drawing and commenting again soon. We miss you.
