caricaturist
Feb. 12th, 2013 09:27 pmI met this guy last night: caricaturist/cartoonist/artist, John Kascht. Really nice guy. Very personable. He makes a living doing pieces for national magazines.
"... a precocious 14-year-old who marched into the Waukesha (Wisconsin) Freeman with his drawings and editorial cartoons and told the receptionist, 'I want to see the editor.' The editor, perhaps amused by the youth’s moxie, agreed to look at his work – and hired him on the spot."
