Agnes creator Tony Cochran will be on Writers Talk today at 3:30 pm (EST) on WCRS. An excerpt of his appearance will be rebroadcast on Wednesday January 19 at 8:00 pm on WCBE. For those of us out of the Ohio area, the audio will be archived online at writerstalk.org (check there tomorrow).
Tony was the first speaker at this year’s Festival of Cartoon Art at OSU. He’s a fantastic and entertaining speaker. Be sure to check out the audio online.
I listened to it live online and really enjoyed it. You should be able to listen an archived version and later in the month some video (tv) of the interview. FYI π
IMHO, Tony is one of the best writers on the daily comics pages today.
I met him at the “Festival of Cartoon Art”. We spoke for an hour about comics, art, New York City, “The Ramones”. π Really great guy and one of the best cartoonists out there. π
I ditto the previous three commenters. Met Tony when we were both speakers at the U of Dayton Erma Bombeck Conference.
I can’t believe it was just about two years ago I talked to Tony on my show. He was episode 9…very early. I sought him out because I was utterly in love with Agnes and wanted to share the love with the world. Tony couldn’t have been nicer…talked about his art other than comics and motorcycles. Great guy.
