Milt Priggee
Political Cartooning: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow
Political imagery can touch the heart, coalesce the truth and make people think. It can make a difference in the life of a person and a country. But there are no longer any staff editorial cartoonists at newspapers anywhere in Washington. What does that mean for our state? Milt Priggee has been a professional political cartoonist since 1976, including several years at The Spokesman-Review in Spokane. He will explain the who, what, where, when, why and how of political commentary as it evolves from print to digital-media platforms. The discussion will then turn to some of Priggee’s own cartoons, including some which were rejected from publication, and explore the stories behind the art and the importance of political cartooning as a medium.
About Milt Priggee Milt Priggee was born in Alaska, grew up in Chicago, graduated from college in Colorado, was a journalism fellow at University of Michigan and has drawn local newspaper cartoons in twelve different states. His nationally syndicated cartoons, caricatures, comic strips and illustrations have appeared in newspapers, magazines, books, websites, album covers, shirts and even wine bottles. A past president of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists, Priggee’s cartoon commentary has generated hate mail, awards, death threats, libel lawsuits and many heated discussions.
Priggee currently lives in Oak Harbor and previously resided in Spokane.
