Martha H. Kennedy brings special attention to forms that have heretofore received scant notice--cover designs, editorial illustrations, and political cartoons--and reveals the contributions of acclaimed cartoonists and illustrators, along with many whose work has been overlooked.Featuring over 250 color illustrations, including eye-catching original art from the collections of the Library of Congress, Drawn to Purpose provides insight into the personal and professional experiences of eighty women who created these works. Included are artists Roz Chast, Lynda Barry, Lynn Johnston, and Jillian Tamaki. The artists' stories, shaped by their access to artistic training, the impact of marriage and children on careers, and experiences of gender bias in the marketplace, serve as vivid reminders of social change during a period in which the roles and interests of women broadened from the private to the public sphere.The vast, often neglected, body of artistic achievement by women remains an important part of our visual culture. The lives and work of the women responsible for it merit much further attention than they have received thus far.

But work takes a strange turn when she suddenly finds herself on the other side of the curtain, developing ads for an antidepressant drug. Day after day, she sees her own suffering in the ads she helps to create, trapped in an endless cycle of treatment, insurance and medication. Overwhelmed by the stress of her professional life and the self-scrutiny it inspires, she begins to destabilize and finds herself hospitalized against her will. In the ward, stripped of the little control over her life she felt she had, she struggles in the midst of doctors, nurses, patients and endless rules to find a path out of the hospital and this cycle of treatment. This is the author's story of being treated for a mental illness as a commodity and the often unavoidable choice between sanity and happiness."--Page [4] of cover.]]></description><link>https://glac.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S185C1694247</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://glac.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S185C1694247</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lindsay, Rachel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://glac.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1694247185</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Graphic Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://contentcafe2.btol.com/ContentCafe/Jacket.aspx?&amp;userID=GLDL22202&amp;password=CC91205&amp;Value=9781455598540&amp;content=M&amp;Return=1&amp;Type=M</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Facing Feelings]]></title><description><![CDATA["This book is based on the exhibition Facing Feelings: The Art of Raina Telgemeier, curated by Anne Drozd, which was on view at the Ohio State University's Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum from May 24, 2023, to November 5, 2023."--Title page verso.]]></description><link>https://glac.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S185C2027764</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://glac.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S185C2027764</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Telgemeier, Raina]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://glac.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2027764185</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Inside the World of Raina Telgemeier</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://contentcafe2.btol.com/ContentCafe/Jacket.aspx?&amp;userID=GLDL22202&amp;password=CC91205&amp;Value=9781338885484&amp;content=M&amp;Return=1&amp;Type=M</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Limbo]]></title><description><![CDATA[Ever since Deborah (Jung-Jin) Lee emigrated from South Korea to the United States, she's felt her otherness.

It was the same every morning. Wake up, grab the ice skates, and head to the rink while the world was still dark. Weekends were spent in glitter and tights at competitions. Perform. Smile. And do it again. She was good. She won. And she hated it. For ten years, figure skating was Tillie Walden's life. She woke before dawn for morning lessons, went straight to group practice after school, and spent weekends competing at ice rinks across the state. Skating was a central piece of her identity, her safe haven from the stress of school, bullies, and family. But as she switched schools, got into art, and fell in love with her first girlfriend, she began to question how the close-minded world of figure skating fit in with the rest of her life, and whether all the work was worth it given the reality: that she, and her friends on the team, were nowhere close to Olympic hopefuls. The more Tillie thought about it, the more Tillie realized she'd outgrown her passion--and she finally needed to find her own voice.]]></description><link>https://glac.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S185C1645449</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://glac.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S185C1645449</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Walden, Tillie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://glac.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1645449185</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://contentcafe2.btol.com/ContentCafe/Jacket.aspx?&amp;userID=GLDL22202&amp;password=CC91205&amp;Value=9781626729407&amp;content=M&amp;Return=1&amp;Type=M</image_url></item></channel></rss>
