American Artifacts: Herblock Political Cartoons

35 minutes

 

The Library of Congress houses the largest collection of political cartoons by Herbert Block, best known as Herblock. His career spanned 72 years and he covered presidents from Herbert Hoover to George W. Bush. Sara Duke, curator of Popular and Applied Graphic Arts, talked to us about his influence and legacy and showed us many of his cartoons, some on exhibit in the library's Herblock Gallery.
