At the Reubens
Once again it’s time for the National Cartoonist Society‘s annual Reuben Awards, this year in sunny Orlando, FL. We arrived last night and today begins the festivities. There are some great speakers lined up in Sam Gross, Bud Grace, Jerry Van Amerongen and Mort Walker, as well as lot’s of other fun stuff. They’ll be a few MAD men around as well including art director Sam Viviano, former editor Nick Meglin and who knows who else.
As I wrote in this post, I am nominated for a few divisional Reuben awards in “Magazine/Magazine Feature Illustration” and “Advertising Illustration”. I’ll find out on Saturday night if I get to haul any hardware home with me.
In the meantime, I’ve got my digital camera and my laptop, so we’ll be doing some “Live from Orlando” Reuben blogging this weekend.

Have a GREAT time Tom and good luck with the nominations, you deserve 1st place in them all! Say Hi to Keelan if you get a chance to see him š
Long time lurker, Tom. Great site. I visit it almost daily. Very inspirational for me and others, I’m sure. Just wanted to say thanks and good luck!
Best of luck, Tom – looking forward to hearing how it goes.

Have a great time! I live in Orlando. Hard to believe so many of my favorite cartoonists are in my own backyard.
Good luck!
