The California College of the Arts MFA in Comics program is thrilled to welcome cartoonist Nomi Kane to our critically-acclaimed faculty. A graduate of The Center for Cartoon Studies and former staff artist at Schulz Studio, Nomi's work has appeared in The New Yorker, The Nib, College Humor, and Bust. Nomi will be leading one of our summer comics workshops and serving as a faculty mentor to our graduate cartoonists.
I think what interested me enough to post about it is the CCS background of Kane's. One thing I did not think of when people started to emerge out of the various schools is how many teaching an non-creative production roles would be filled by people with one of the schools in their past. This is important in part because I think there's more competition for these jobs from people outside of a traditional comics background. These connections should mitigate against that.
