Abstract

ABSTRACT In Fall 2022, we sat down with MacArthur Genius Award winner, cartoonist Lynda Barry to share our admiration for her work and learn about her advocacy for cartooning and creativity. We talked about comics, her work in the classroom, and the techniques she uses to help students expand their visual focus and their imaginative capacity. In this interview, we think about child development and the nurturing of children’s imagination, our favourite cartoonists, what happens in comics, and music and drawing together. We also hear stories from the classroom of Lynda Barry! Reflecting Barry’s work and her ways, this interview explores and celebrates her genius.
