Kevin Tobin

Kevin Tobin (KT) has been an editorial cartoonist for the St. John's daily newspaper The Telegram for 40 years. Since the mid-1980's he has used his cartoons to comment on local politics, provincial issues, and national events--from premirs, prime ministers, and colourful characters to the Cod Moratorium, Muskrat Falls, the recent pandemic, and everything in between. He has published 10 books of his editorial cartoons up to 2010, and has illustrated two books with the band Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers. Since 2020, KT has illustrated three children's books, the "Bizzie Tizzie" series, with his daughter Jessica, a graphic designer. A self-employed artist, KT has been painting caricatures over the past decade and really enjoys the creative freedom that cartooning, painting, and illustration bring.
