Author Reading | Mort Gerberg on the Scene: A New Yorker Cartoonist's 50-Year Retrospective

Wednesday, January 30, 2019, 7:00 pm

Free

Mort Gerberg broke into print with irreverent drawings in The Realist in the early ’60s, whose social-justice-minded—and bitingly funny—cartoons have since appeared in all major magazines, including The New Yorker, Playboy, and The Saturday Evening Post. As a reporter, he’s sketched historic scenes like the fiery Women’s Marches of the ’60s and the infamous ’68 Democratic National Convention.

Above all, Mort Gerberg is a keen political and social observer, whose curiosity, compassion, and razor-sharp wit has informed his work for over 50 years. Fantagraphics Underground is proud to present this handsome career retrospective of Gerberg’s magazine cartoons, sketchbook drawings, and on-the-scene reportage sketches.

Mort Gerberg is an award-winning cartoonist and author known for his book, Cartooning, The Art and the Business. He has drawn three nationally-syndicated newspaper comic strips and written, edited, and/or illustrated 43 books for adults and children. He taught cartooning for 15 years at New York City’s Parsons School of Design and was a founder and president of the Cartoonists Guild. In 2014, the Library of Congress acquired 79 of Gerberg’s original pen-and-ink drawings for cartoons and reportage published in different venues. Gerberg lives in New York City with his wife.
