Broelman Dominates '09 Stanley Awards

It's making a slow wind through the wire services, but last weekend's Stanley Awards for Australian cartooning honored Peter Broelman twice, for Australian cartoonist of the year and editorial/political cartoonist. Broelman is a freelancer based in Adelaide and distributed on-line by Cagle.com.

Other winners were Gary Clark (comic strip), Matt Golding (gag cartoons), Anton Emdin (illustration), David Follet (media graphics), John Spooner (caricature). Norman Hetherington won the Jim Russell Award, which sounds like a lifetime achievement type of deal. An initial Hall of Fame class was also named: Jim Bancks, Stan Cross, Will Dyson, Percy Leason, Norman Lindsay and Pat Oliphant.

It was the 25th year for the awards.
