Go, Read: E&P Profile of Tom Toles
Editor & Publisher marks the five-year anniversary of Tom Toles' tenure as editorial cartoonist at the
Washington Post with
a semi-lengthy profile. It concentrates on the most noteworthy ongoing issue with which he's had to deal: Iraq, where his opinions are much different than those of his employer's editorial board, and, once upon a time, Washington DC in general.
Toles is one of the great editorial cartoonists of the moment, and because of a combination of the respected run by the late Herblock that preceded Toles and the paper's position at the heart of a city dominated by American political opinion, the
Post job is kind of the editorial cartooning equivalent of playing center field for the New York Yankees or quarterback at Notre Dame.
For further reading, the
Post offers
a gigantic Toles archive.
