ABOUT THE BOOK

An anthology of funny, poignant, and entertaining cartoons, biographical sketches, and social history all in one,
Very Funny Ladies: The New Yorker's Women Cartoonists (March 2022) offers a unique slant on 20th-century and early 21st-century America through the humorous perspectives of the talented women who have captured in pictures and captions many of the key social issues of their time. Liza Donnelly provides distinctive insights on the creative process, the relationships between artists and editors, what it means to be a female cartoonist, and the personalities of the other New Yorker women cartoonists, whom she has known over the years.

Featuring more than seventy cartoons, along with photographs and self-portraits of the cartoonists, and never-before-published material from The New Yorker archives, Very Funny Ladies is a history of the women of the past who drew cartoons and a celebration of the recent explosion of new talent from cartoonists who are women.
