First Cartoon of the Year

Here’s my most recent cartoon from this week’s edition of The Economist. Any resemblance between the disreputable character portrayed in the cartoon and any cartoonist alive or dead is purely coincidental… more or less.

Kal, The Economist and the Daily Show’s John Oliver

December 21st, 2009 | Category: Economist, News

Recently in Washington DC, The Economist held a fabulous event titled The World in 2010 Festival. It featured a diverse and exhilarating group of speakers speculating on the events and trends for the upcoming year.

Among the guest’s was John Oliver, correspondent for The Daily Show. He delivered a terrific performance  which included a stand up routine and a “Tonight Show” style interview session with Oliver acting as host (See video below). I had the assignment of capturing the day’s events in a cartoon sketchbook. You can see some of the sketches below.

Included in the program was a short talk by me chatting about caricature and Obama in 2010. (see video above)

The Festival also included a trip to the recording of “Meet The Press” where we saw the physically imposing David Gregory interview NYT columnist Tom Friedman.
