Liza Donnelly: Political Cartoons, Connection, Hope | Turn the Lens #05

Turn the Lens with Jeff Frick

In this episode, we sat down Liza Donnelly, award-winning cartoonist, illustrator, visual journalist, live drawer, an observer of humanity. I first met Liza when she was live drawing the keynotes at the Stanford Women in Data Science Conference and was amazed at the way she captured the personalities of the speakers and their talks in just a few lines, splashes of color, and just the right expression. In this far-ranging discussion, we cover the importance of cartoons and illustrations in helping to communicate difficult topics and ideas. We explored the new world of direct connection with fans through various channels beyond traditional publications. And we close on the process, and how that's changed over time with new tools and techniques. Liza is very thoughtful, intentional, and her messages carry a power and weight that far exceeds the somewhat whimsical lines and watercolors on paper.
