Stuart Carlson
 
Meet Stuart Carlson

As a youngster growing up in West Bend, Wis., Stuart Carlson exhibited a knack for cartooning at a tender age, sometimes drawing on the walls of his parents' apartment with lipstick.

Before joining the Milwaukee Sentinel in 1983, Carlson was a reporter, cartoonist and editor for a weekly newspaper and a small daily newspaper in Wisconsin.

Carlson's ability to translate current events into cogent visual statements has won him several awards, including the 1995 John Fischetti Award; his selection as the nation's best cartoonist in 1991 by the National Press Foundation; numerous best cartoon of the year honors from the Milwaukee Press Club; the 1986 Robert W. Gillespie Sentinel Staff Award for Excellence; and the 1988 University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Young Alumni Award.



His work has appeared in The New York Times, Newsweek, The Washington Post, Barron's, Playboy magazine, and on ABC News' Nightline.

Carlson lives in a maintenance-intensive Victorian house in Milwaukee with his wife, Mary, daughters Caitlin and Bridget, and son, Brandon.
