Cartoons & Caricatures' Lee P. Sauer, who was named top weekly political cartoonist by the Hoosier State Press Association in 2000 and 2001, was one of three members of the online group indianacartoonists.com who spoke to visitors of the Wells County Public Library in Bluffton, IN, on Thursday, April 15. Dave Sattler, political cartoonist for the LaFayette (IN) Journal and Courier, and Irene Joslin, political cartoonist for the Brown County (IN) Democrat, showed examples of their work and explained the contexts behind the messages.
