McCall’s New York
You know you’ve made it in this biz when they start putting your art on coffee mugs. Such is the case with New Yorker cover artist, Bruce McCall, whose work is being celebrated this very moment at The New York Historical Society (April 23 – August 15, 2021). Mr. McCall began contributing to the magazine in March of 1980.
Speaking of Mr. McCall, and New York, the only photo in the Spill archives of Mr. McCall happens to be the one posted below, which I post simply because I find it, to this very day, odd indeed. Taken September 14, 2014, in Carolines Comedy Club, NYC, from left to right: this cartoonist, David Letterman, Bruce McCall, and New Yorker writer, John Kenney. Mr. Kenney had just been awarded the Thurber Prize .
I was standing in for Liza Donnelly, whose plane was delayed getting into New York. She was a Thurber Prize nominee, along with Mr. Letterman and Mr. McCall.
