Fakta

Walt Handelsman is the recipient of the 1997 Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning. His nationally syndicated editorial cartoons appear regularly in more than eighty-five newspapers around the country. Reprints of his pieces frequently appear in publications including USA Today, the New York Times, and Newsweek. But he is best known as the hometown cartoonist for the New Orleans Times-Picayune, a post he has held since 1989. Now, the wit and political penmanship of this acclaimed artist can be found in a singular collection of his works, Political Gumbo.

Covering international issues, nationwide events, and a few points of local interest to Louisiana, this gallery of Handelsman's cartoons is both pointed and poignant. He is able to cover world dramas, from Somalia to the Gulf War to Bosnia to Tiananmen Square, with incredible depth in a single frame. His humor shines well through his commentary on two presidential administrations and a seemingly unending supply of topics, like health care, race relations, tax reform, term limits, and, of course, the campaigns.

One hallmark of his work is the ability to bring news from Louisiana into the national editorial foreground. His caricatures of Louisiana notables, like Gov. Edwin Edwards and the ever-controversial David Duke and their political antics, frequently make the op-ed pages outside of the state. His cartoons of Duke's defeat for the governorship in 1992 earned him the Sigma Delta Chi Headliner's Award, presented by the Society of Professional Journalists. He is also a two-time winner of the National Headliner's Club Award.
