The AAEC/John Locher Memorial Award was founded in 1986 by members of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists. They felt the need to establish an award that would not only honor the memory of John Locher, but also would help discover young cartoonists and stimulate interest in editorial cartooning among college-age students in North America. It’s named after the late son of Dick and Mary Locher.
