About J.D. Crowe (from an interview on www.wkrg.com)Twenty years ago there were over two hundred political cartoonists working for newspapers in the United States. Today there are about ninety...less than two per state! One of that rare breed lives and draws right here on the Gulf Coast. He produces five cartoons a week for the Mobile Press Register, and also syndicates cartoons dealing with national issues. In the last year his work has appeared in the Los Angeles Times, New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and USA Today among others.
Typical of his work is a cartoon which compares legislators to manatees, the large lethargic animals which inhabit coastal waters in summer. He draws legislator faces on the manatee bodies and says, "These beasts return each year, but there is little evidence of anything they actually do while they're here."
