If you've been a regular reader of The New Yorker magazine, then you may already be familiar with this week's guest, Liz Montague. (But if you're not, then this conversation is a perfect introduction!) Liz is the first Black woman to have a cartoon featured in The New Yorker, and now she's an author with her first book set to hit bookstores everywhere in the Fall. Everything's coming up Liz!
Our conversation begin with a quick life update, and from there Liz talked about starting her comic "Liz at Large" as a college student. She also talked about how she began contributing to The New Yorker, and spoke about representation, how that's reflected in her work, and her future books (plural!) that are on the way. Liz is proof that self-determination and hard work definitely pay off in the future!
