I place mine on a layout template and use an FTP to upload it to a storage website and then email the gal that puts the papers together. Although since I'm working at the paper this summer, I just save it on the server there. Of course there's this whole rigamaroll of saving the layout as a post script file and then distilling it as a PDF and then using the FTP to upload it so that the guy at the printing plant can pull it down and do whatever he does. Whew! As George Jetson used to say, "Ow, my aching button finger!"

How does it get from here to there

Dr. Suess, Political Cartoonist

Dr. Suess, Political Cartoonist
Did you know this? Me either- how cool!
Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel, 1904-1991) was a life-long cartoonist: in high school in Springfield, Massachusetts; in college at Dartmouth (Class of 1925); as an adman in New York City before World War II; in his many children's books, beginning with To Think That I Saw it on Mulberry Street (1937). Because of the fame of his children's books (and because we often misunderstand these books) and because his political cartoons have remained largely unknown, we do not think of Dr. Seuss as a political cartoonist. But for two years, 1941-1943, he was the chief editorial cartoonist for the New York newspaper PM (1940-1948), and for that journal he drew over 400 editorial cartoons.
