RIP: Paul Conrad

One of my favorite political cartoonists and inspiration for my early work in cartooning, Paul Conrad, died at the age of 86 on Saturday. For those not familiar, he was a giant in the industry who worked at the LA Times for over thirty years and won three pulitzer prizes for his work. He was one of our nation's greatest political satirists.
