Profile

Bio

I am an editorial cartoonist in the San Francisco Bay Area.  I have had several cartoons published by “The San Francisco Chronicle”, the largest daily in my area. I have also had my cartoons included in the last four editions of “Best Editorial Cartoons of The Year”. My cartoons appear on a regular basis in “The Jewish News Weekly of Northern California” and “The Jerusalem Post”. I have studied Mid-East politics and history and enjoy commenting on this particular area of world. As an undergrad, I was a regular contributor to the U.C.L.A. daily Bruin. I have also illustrated a book for psychologist Margie Ryerson. My cartoons can be viewed on my website: editorialcartoonsbybarry.com where signed prints are available for purchase.

OUR MISSION

The mission of the AAEC is to champion and defend editorial cartooning and free speech as essential to liberty in the United States and throughout the world.

The AAEC aims to be an international leader in support of the human, civil, and artistic rights of editorial cartoonists around the world, and to stand with other international groups in support of the profession.

LOCHER FELLOWSHIP

The AAEC John Locher Memorial Fellowship is awarded each year to one early-career cartoonist whose work demonstrates clear opinions and strong artistry on political and social topics. Deadline to be considered is the end of March.

The Locher Fellow will receive a one-year Regular membership in the AAEC, be a guest of the CXC Festival — held every fall in Columbus, Ohio —  and have the opportunity to meet with editorial cartoonists during the year of the Fellowship for portfolio reviews and career advice.
