Synopsis
Since 1955, when his work began enlivening the pages of MAD magazine, Al Jaffee has pickled three generations of American kids in the brine of satire-and he continues to bring millions of childhoods to untimely ends with the knowledge that parents are hypocrites, teachers are dummies, politicians are liars, and life isn't fair. Jaffee has a life story that is truly bizarre, that reads like a comic strip of traumatic cliff-hangers with cartoons by Jaffee and captions by Freud-from his traumatic childhood as a reverse immigrant to finding his adult place at the forefront of a movement that would forever change the face of humor and cartooning in America. A cliff-hanger of a life deserves a page-turner of a biography, and that's precisely what Mary-Lou Weisman and Al Jaffee have delivered., "One of the great cartoonists of our time." - New Yorker cartoonist Arnold Roth The remarkable story of one of America's most prolific and beloved cartoonists, Al Jaffee, with dozens of original color illustrations. Jaffe's career in cartooning stretches back to 1941--with early humor pieces for Timely Comics, a precursor to Marvel Comics--but the iconic artist remains best known for the brilliant Fold-In cartoons he invented at Bill Gaines's Mad magazine in 1964. The cerebral and sardonic illustrations have inspired generations of Mad readers--including Stephen Colbert, R. Crumb, Gary Larson and Charles Shultz--to embrace a firm and healthy irreverence towards the status quo. New York Times columnist and bestselling author Mary-Lou Weisman ( My Middle-Aged Baby Book ) helps Jaffe tell his remarkable story., "One of the great cartoonists of our time." -New Yorker cartoonist Arnold Roth The remarkable story of one of America's most prolific and beloved cartoonists, Al Jaffee, with dozens of original color illustrations.
