For Better or For Worse creator Lynn Johnston was inducted into the International Women’s Forum International Hall of Fame this last month. Lynn joins several high profile, successful women – a list of who’s who in media, politics, entertainment.

In her acceptance speech, Lynn mentions that as a kid she never felt connected with the girls in the neighborhood, but couldn’t be part of the boys (“because I couldn’t pee through the knot-hole in Gary Perkins’ garage”), but as an adult drawing FBOFW, she found her connection.

Congratulations to Lynn. As she says in her acceptance speech,
“When I was asked by Universal Press Syndicate to create a comic strip from a woman’s point of view, I promised to show my side- OUR side of it, wart and all.”

And she surely did.
