About John Sherffius (from The Association of Editorial Cartoonists)
I was honored with the Scripps Howard National Journalism Award for cartoons drawn in 2001. And I won the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award for my coverage of issues affecting the poor in 2003. I resigned from the Post-Dispatch in December, 2003. It was a tough decision, because I was proud of the forceful work I had done there. But the new editor had a different vision of the role of an editorial cartoonist, and I felt my work was no longer a good fit. I love this profession with a passion, however, and have continued producing five cartoons a week for a handful of clients, including the Kansas City Star, the Ventura County Star, the Illinois Times and the American Prospect's website.
