We expect this Artists in Residence event to be especially crowded. An exhibit of her work is up through June 2nd at the Lyndon House, and her design skills have been evident in this year’s local elections. An earlier book of her comics, called How to be Happy, was included in NPR’s reader poll last year of the top 100 graphic and comic novels.Ī book for kids, Stinky, received a Geisel Honor Award from the American Library Association in 2009, and in 2013 one of her illustrated short stories won a gold medal from the Society of Illustrators. Last year NPR included Eleanor’s book You & a Bike & a Road in their list of best books of 2017. On June 16th, WUGA is celebrating local cartoonist and illustrator Eleanor Davis, whose colorful and distinctive illustrations often appear in the New York Times and in The New Yorker. Note: this story celebrates one of the artists in WUGA's 5 year Artist in Residence series which concluded in 2019.
