Jules Feiffer

'Name it, and Jules Feiffer has done it. He’s a cartoonist, playwright, screenwriter, illustrator and memoirist. He’s won an Oscar and a Pulitzer Prize, among other accolades. This week, he visits the podcast to discuss his career and his new picture book for children, “Smart George,” a follow-up to his 1999 book “Bark, George.” Feiffer discusses, among other things, why it took him so long to return to George.

I get the NYTimes and many other outlets but you always pick things that I have missed.

He has been a presence in my adult life sort of starting in the 60s and eking along even now. I miss seeing more of him but will search actively.
