About the Author
G. B. Trudeau is a celebrated American cartoonist and satirist whose incisive wit has shaped political discourse for over five decades. Best known for creating the iconic comic strip Doonesbury, which debuted in 1970, Trudeau has masterfully chronicled the absurdities of American life, from Vietnam War protests to the digital age's social upheavals. His work blends sharp humor with profound social commentary, earning him a Pulitzer Prize in 1975 and widespread acclaim for its fearless critique of power structures. In #SAD!: Doonesbury in the Time of Trump, Trudeau dissects the chaotic era of the 45th presidency, using his signature blend of caricature and insight to expose the follies of politics and culture. A Yale alumnus and author of numerous collections, Trudeau continues to influence generations with his unflinching gaze on society's underbelly.
