This amusing comic strip pictures Cathy trying every effort to stay awake during a business meeting. Debuting in 1976, Cathy Guisewite in her unapologetically autobiographical strip addresses romance and now marriage, family relationships, pets, food, and work, which speaks to a generation of American women pushing up toward the glass ceiling through the ranks of middle management Award-winning cartoonist Cathy Guisewite (b. 1950) began her career as an advertising writer. Guisewite is the second female cartoonist to win the coveted Reuben award from the National Cartoonists' Society. |
