She doesn't have a website or blog.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00874162149979602139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-82182506690874103022008-01-29T14:32:00.000-07:002008-01-29T14:32:00.000-07:00I am sure late posting this but haven't visited in...I am sure late posting this but haven't visited in a while. I can't resist telling you that I also think Roz Chast is wonderful. For many years I have had her cartoon, Lotsa Ducks, framed in my kitchen. I also like the Girl with Sensible Shoes alot but she has a way of touching that internal funny bone. Such a gift.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-31624002578915675522008-01-29T10:05:00.000-07:002008-01-29T10:05:00.000-07:00would be nice if the four of us could come up with...would be nice if the four of us could come up with our own questions for Roz and interview her by email; wonder if there's any way to get in touch with herAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-74931182215194068982008-01-28T20:18:00.000-07:002008-01-28T20:18:00.000-07:00Could you photograph the sketchbook using your mac...Could you photograph the sketchbook using your macro lens?

Jon noticed the similarity too. She was very talented. I have a sketchbook she did at 17 that I'd like to scan and put on line, but I don't think the binding could survive, so I'm not sure what to do.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00874162149979602139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-65609815959987910392008-01-28T19:04:00.000-07:002008-01-28T19:04:00.000-07:00What an inspiration!

How is she like your sister? Looks? Mannerisms? Sense of humor? I wish your sister were around. Did you do stuff together? My sister and I never did in the past, but having her around now is so great, even tho we are opposites & disagree about everything.Linda Davickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03660351950973083893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-67436440198710158302008-01-27T19:02:00.000-07:002008-01-27T19:02:00.000-07:00I wasn't familiar with the name, but when I watche...I wasn't familiar with the name, but when I watched the video and saw examples of her work I recognized her. I watched the whole thing. She has a keen knack for mixing in fascination with the mundane (lamps, wallpaper) with the unusual (parasitic twins). I also liked the display of kid horrors that included the dreaded <I>plate where all the food touches each other!</I><BR/>I had a childhood friend who remarked "that's so true!" any time a funny/weird irony was parodied on t.v. or in the movies. That line kept coming back to me during the interview.<BR/>How was she like your sister? Same insights and sense of humor? I'm terribly sorry she's not here anymore. The world needs more people like Roz.Namowal (Jennifer Bourne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00384500508934864421noreply@blogger.com
