Steve Breen Wins 2009 Pulitzer Prize

Steve Breen of the San Diego Union-Tribune has won this year's Pulitzer Prize in editorial cartooning, it was announced earlier today. Breen won the Pulitzer 11 years ago as a younger cartoonist with the Asbury Park-Press, and has been with the San Diego paper since I think 2001. Expect the articles about this year's slate of winners to make something of the Union-Tribune's semi-shaky financial status over the last several months. You might also see an article or two noting that Breen is a fairly traditional editorial cartoonist: on staff, syndicated (by Copley, I think), and with a strip (Grand Avenue) as opposed to someone working in a non-traditional style or making a lot of noise with animated versions of his work.
