Speaking of Michael Ramirez, he is one of three editorial cartoonists — along with Gary Varvel and Mike Luckovich — who will be receiving the "Advancing American Democracy Award" next week.
All three will be bestowed with the honor as part of the The Mary Tucker Jasper Speaker Series held on Sept. 20 at the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site in Indianapolis.
This year's program is called "Icons of Political Art," part of the Presidential Site's mission to "increase participation in the American system of self-government by sharing the life stories, arts, and culture of an American President."
