An exclusive sneak peek inside the creative minds of more than 50 New Yorker cartoonists, celebrating legends and newcomers alike with stunning photography and engaging profiles. For a century, The New Yorker has provided readers with hundreds of thousands of cartoons that humorously (and accurately) encapsulate the cultural happenings in our world.

In honor of the magazine’s 100th birthday, this celebratory collection captures the brilliantly quirky personalities behind some of The New Yorker’s most iconic cartoons. Filled with striking portraits by world-renowned photographer Alen MacWeeney, captivating profiles by long-time New Yorker contributor Michael Maslin, and a sampling of each artist’s work, these pages offer an exclusive peek inside the creative brains of over fifty prominent cartoonists, both seasoned and newly minted. From legends like Roz Chast and Jack Ziegler to contemporaries like Liana Finck and Jeremy Nguyen, this landmark volume is a beautiful homage to the artists who have long brought joy, humor, and satire to our lives.
