Description
The gently surreal culture in many of Katchor’s strips includes hucksters, butter-and-egg men, latter-day Kabbalists and merchants living in a wonderland of tin ceilings, illuminated storefronts, and unusual enterprises such as the Senseless Elaboration Parlor and the Mortal Coil Mattress Store. The first cartoonist to win a MacArthur "genius grant," Katchor is the author of The Jew of New York, Julius Knipl, Real Estate Photographer and The Cardboard Valise.More Info
