An exclusive sneak peek inside the creative minds of more than 50 New Yorker cartoonists, celebrating legends and newcomers alike with stunning photography and engaging profiles. For a century, The New Yorker has provided readers with hundreds of thousands of cartoons that humorously (and accurately) encapsulate the cultural happenings in our world. From politics to pop culture, New Yorker cartoonists have found a way to make complex topics digestible through lines, shades, and clever, witty captions. In honor of the magazine's 100th birthday, this celebratory collection captures the brilliantly quirky personalities behind some of The New Yorker's most iconic cartoons. Filled with striking portraits by world-renowned photographer Alen MacWeeney, captivating profiles by long-time New Yorker contributor Michael Maslin, and a sampling of each artist's work, these pages offer an exclusive peek inside the creative brains of over fifty prominent cartoonists, both seasoned and newly minted. From legends like Roz Chast and Jack Ziegler to contemporaries like Liana Finck and Jeremy Nguyen, this landmark volume is a beautiful homage to the artists who have long brought joy, humor, and satire to our lives.

Review :
“At Wit’s End is the kind of gift you (on the sly) keep for yourself: Short profiles of 52 of the magazine’s cartoonists (roughly Roz Chast to Chris Weyant), paired with a sample of their work and a new portrait—simple, insightful and belly-laugh funny.”—The Chicago Tribune “An elegantly designed showcase . . . a unique document that pays homage to some of the older (and a few deceased) masters, transitional pioneers and the latest wave of artists.”—Steven Heller for PRINT Magazine “Like the New Yorker cartoons of its subjects, At Wit’s End: Cartoonists of the New Yorker is perfectly positioned at the intersection of funny and smart . . . recommended for fans of the New Yorker, of course, but also fans of comedy and cartoons, and anyone interested in the ways that media evolves over time.”—BookPage “Delightful . . . The book will remind you of many of your favorite cartoons.”—Air Mail “This ideal coffee-table book for cartoon enthusiasts contains beautiful, spirited portraits of New Yorker cartoonists accompanied by their history with the magazine and cartooning influences.”—Shelf Awareness
