Trial by Cartoonist

Norman Quebedeau is one of the many talented artists who worked with me on the Garfield and Friends TV series. Norman's gone on to many other shows, and he also occasionally works as a courtroom sketch artist, a job that fascinates me. A number of fine cartoonists including Bill Lignante and Dick Rockwell did work as courtroom sketch artists and found it to be a job for which a career in comics or cartoons well-prepared them.

Norman covered the arraignment of Barry Bonds for Reuters and you can find an example of his drawing here. He's also sketching the murder trial of Hans Reiser for Wired.com. See some of his fine work for them here.
