Before becoming a freelance cartoonist, Benita Epstein conducted scientific and medical research for twenty years at several universities. She figured she had gathered enough funny material to last a lifetime in her new humorous career.
Benita often features women in the workplace, especially scientists, doctors or businesswomen. Her humor ranges from subtle and understated to cynical and sarcastic.
Her award winning cartoons have appeared in hundreds of publications including The New Yorker, Barron’s, Wall St. Journal, American Scientist, Reader’s Digest, greeting cards (Papyrus, Marian Heath, NobleWorks) textbooks, newspapers, trade journals and merchandise.
She’s honored to be in this accomplished, talented group. “The Six Chix have something to say and they say it in a funny, witty way.”
Benita lives with her family in rural northern California where she loves to garden, walk her little dog and hike.
