Ted Rall
Born in Cambridge, Mass., Rall graduated with a B.A. from Columbia University with honors in history (His thesis, now widely published, was about secret U.S. plans to occupy France at the end of World War II). Inspired by a chance meeting with subway artist Keith Haring, Rall began posting his cartoons on New York City streets and became nationally syndicated in 1991. His cartoons, which are frequently discussed on national television, appear in newspapers across the country, including The Los Angeles Times, Washington Post and Village Voice.
Rall, a Pulitzer Prize finalist, has authored over a dozen books. He is the editor of the influential Attitude series of comics anthologies and has twice won the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award. He also serves as vice president of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists.
