Thursdays: Anne Gibbons





















Anne Gibbons always loved to draw, but it wasn’t until she ran into several brick walls pursuing more practical careers that she realized her best bet was to pursue her passion. Since that awakening, cartoons by Anne Gibbons have adorned everything from greeting cards, magazines, books, newspapers and web sites to mugs, magnets, t-shirts and tote bags. The National Cartoonists Society honored Anne with the prestigious Reuben Award for Greeting Cards in 2000.
Gibbons’ cartoons strike a special chord with women, making her perfect for Six Chix, which she joined in June 2007. She also works as an illustrator, designs licensed products and creates a comic strip, “Eve ’n Steven,” that appears in the award-winning newspaper, The Riverdale Press.
Gibbons lives in New York City with her husband and one houseplant that has survived against all odds.
