Biography
Ann Telnaes has created editorial cartoons in various mediums — animation, visual essays, live sketches and traditional print — for The Washington Post since 2008.
She won the Pulitzer Prize in 2001, the National Cartoonists Society’s Reuben Award for Outstanding Cartoonist of the Year for 2016 and the International EWK Award for 2021.
Telnaes’s print work was shown in a solo exhibition at the Great Hall in the Thomas Jefferson Building of the Library of Congress in 2004. Her first book, "Humor’s Edge," was published by Pomegranate Press and the Library of Congress in 2004, and a collection of Vice President Cheney cartoons, "Dick," was self-published in 2006. "Trump’s ABC," a not-for-children parody book, was published by Fantagraphics in January 2018. Her work has also been exhibited in Paris, Jerusalem and Lisbon.
