Joe Sharpnack reports that a sudden condition has left him partially blind. The Daily Iowan has the story.
Known for his wicked sense of humor, the stalwart Iowan's work has appeared in the Washington Post and USAToday over the years. He was a member of the AAEC for a time, before his iconoclastic ways lead him to quit. His work has appeared in a number of collections, including the first "Attitude" book by Ted Rall, and the AAEC's "Attack of the Political Cartoonists."
