Mort Gerberg and I met in 2017, in a stuffy conference room/holding pen in the offices of The New Yorker. We were among the dozen or so people who milled about that day, each of us waiting our turn to show our drawings to the cartoon editor, Emma Allen. I had just sold my first cartoon to the magazine; Mort, who started contributing in 1965, had sold hundreds. In that room, Mort was a legend, but he wore the status lightly—joking, inquisitive, and kind to all, including newcomers like me.

I just got to do something I’ve been talking about doing for a while, especially when Trump was signing impulsive executive orders every other day to unfairly boot out immigrants… I officially became a citizen of these here United States!(Don’t worry Australia, I’m still a dual citizen. You can’t get rid of me that easily.) The whole process was difficult, fascinating, teeth-grindingly stressful at times, and ultimately a huge relief.

YOU KNOW HOW you can read a book at one point in your life and get something out of it, and then reread it ten years later and have a totally different experience? The book I’ve read the most number of times is The Watsons Go To Birmingham— 1963, by Christopher Paul Curtis. I probably read it at least once a year from ages eight to fifteen or so, and every time I did, there was something new to appreciate. It kept unraveling itself in unexpected ways.

I love comics. There are many reasons why, but chief among them is the sense of closeness I feel, in reading a comic, to the creator. Because comics are visual, the reading experience is as much about the presentation as it is the content: that is, the mark-making; the layout; the way a face is drawn, or occluded. Even text, in comics, becomes an aesthetic element: is it hand-lettered, or a font? Where is it placed on the page? How does text interact with the image?
