Mark Fiore, whose animated cartoons appear on The San Francisco Chronicle’s Web site, was thunderstruck by the announcement that he had won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning. It was the first time that the prize was given to an artist whose work did not appear in print. The Pulitzer jury noted Mr. Fiore’s "biting wit, extensive research and ability to distill complex issues set a high standard for an emerging form of commentary." Since 2001, Mr. Fiore, 40, has made animated video cartoons for SFGate.com. His winning entry included cartoons about skepticism toward climate change, credit card regulation reform and the political realities facing President Obama.
You probably remember Mark from this fab cartoon, the one that led Bill O'Reilly to call NPR "a leftwing jihadist deal" and led to Mark receiving death threats.
