Magazine Cartoonist Profiles – A Chronicles Post
Skip to comments
Magazine cartoonists Michael Maslin and Mike Lynch (with Dick Buchanan) have gone back to the days when magazine cartooning was popular and ubiquitous.
Yesterday, while having a blast looking through ancient issues of The New Yorker to talk about today, I ran across a rarity: a cartoonist I didn’t recall.

Read Maslin’s preliminary findings at Ink Spill.
Then Mike Lynch and Dick Buchanan present a profile of magazine cartoonist Martha Blanchard who flourished from the 1940s through the 1960s.
Martha Blanchard’s cartoons appeared in all of the top markets. She was also a book illustrator. A member of the Art Students League and the National Cartoonists Society, she was a fixture in the New York City post-war cartooning circles.
