	Garry Trudeau - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He is the great-grandson of Dr. Edward Trudeau, who created facilities for the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis at Saranac Lake, New York State.
		Garretson Beekman Trudeau (born July 21, 1948) is an American cartoonist.
		In 2004, Trudeau made a widely-circulated offer of a $10,000 reward for proof that George W. Bush fulfilled his military duties in the 1970s.

	Doonesbury - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Garry Trudeau received the National Cartoonist Society Newspaper Comic Strip Award for 1994, and their Reuben Award for 1995 for his work on the strip.
		Trudeau was asked, in 1976, if the similarities were deliberate, and laughed at the reporter, saying "I really don't know her that well." Fenwick was said, in the same article, to not know about Doonesbury and could not remember having met Trudeau.
		Trudeau also delighted and intrigued readers by displaying fluency in various forms of jargon, including that of real estate agents, flight attendants, computer nerds, journalists, presidential aides, and soldiers in Iraq.

	Washingtonpost.com: Live Online
		Garry Trudeau: I'm not entirely sure about this, but in general, it seems my audience has aged with me. Part of this is because the strip has always been written from a generational perspective, and part of it is because newspapers have fallen in serious disfavor with the young.
		Garry Trudeau: "Doonesbury" is an amalgam of "doone," a college slang word for a good-natured fool, and "Pillsbury," the last name of one of my college roommates.
		Trudeau, a Yale graduate, took a satirical look at the Reagan administration off-Broadway in 1984's "Rap Master Ronnie." In 1988, he wrote and co-produced "Tanner '88" on HBO with director Robert Altman, a satire of the Bush-Dukakis presidential campaign.

	Reason: Doonesburied: The decline of Garry Trudeau -- and of baby boom liberalism.
		Trudeau was in his 20s during the strip's early run and thus had no trouble imagining that college students -- at the time, most of his major characters were in college -- would be smart and engaged with the world.
		Trudeau's career arc mirrors the evolution of baby-boom liberalism, from the anti-authoritarian skepticism of the 1970s to the smug paternalism of the Clinton years.
		Trudeau had already won the Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning, an award never before given to a comic strip (and rarely given to someone who is actually funny).

	DefenseLINK News: Cartoonist Helps Troops, Fisher House
		Award-winning satirist Garry Trudeau of "Doonesbury" fame visited the Pentagon today to meet with troops wounded in the war on terror and present them autographed copies of his book featuring the healing process of a comic character he said they inspired.
		Trudeau said he considers it "quite a privilege and an honor" to be able to sit at wounded troops' bedsides and have them so openly share their experiences, as well as their hopes and fears, with a total stranger.
		Trudeau said he decided to take B.D., a former football star, and have him receive a life-altering injury because he wanted to dramatize the kind of sacrifices troops are making in a very direct way.

	xymphora: Garry Trudeau on blogging
		Garry Trudeau, who does the Doonesbury cartoon, takes a cheap shot at bloggers.
		Trudeau is married to Jane Pauley, an expert at the trivial nonsense that now passes for journalism.
		Trudeau, whose cartoon used to be important, has taken on the nice-but-stupid persona of his wife, and Doonesbury is now a sad shadow of what it was twenty years ago.

	Salon Brilliant Careers Garry Trudeau
		Trudeau, mindful that many of his strips constitute editorializing, has said he doesn't care where newspapers stick "Doonesbury." In 1975 he won a Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning -- the first time the award went to a comic strip artist -- and he was a finalist for another one in 1989.
		Trudeau takes this opportunity to bash an industry that seems bent on rewarding money losers, and along the way he gets in some scathing shots at Nike, which employs one of Kim's relatives in a Vietnamese sweatshop.
		Trudeau thus became a member of an elite tradition of humorists who have constructed well-defined communities from which to aim their satire.

	Wired 8.08: The Revolution Will Be Satirized
		Garry Trudeau is on a digital roll, reveling in dotcomedy - and chasing vertical eyeballs with his 3-D, full-motion, cross-platform Duke2000 campaign.
		Trudeau seems well aware that the digital world he's temporarily exploring with the Duke campaign is where his career is headed, and he knows it's high time he got on the fast track of 21st-century media.
		Trudeau hasn't done an extended interview in 10 years, but D2K has loosened him up, partly because the experimental venture needs his support, and partly because he's nervous about the future of print, where he made his reputation.

	Keep Them Laughing - Garry Trudeau
		I sent a message last week asking Garry Trudeau if he knew he was tapping into the "collective unconscious" and asked him what technique if anything he was using to do this or if he even knew he was doing this.
		I have been observing this connection between Garry Trudeau's characters and "the real world" for over 10 years now.
		Trudeau has a special gift to intercept thoughts and that they are not all coming from his own head.

	Power Line: Attending to Trudeau
		I gave up reading Garry Trudeau's Doonesbury strip some thirty years ago.
		The best takedown of Garry Trudeau and his idiotic Doonesbury "comic" can be fouund on Jeff Percifield's great satiric site, Beautiful Atrocties.
		Trudeau might be satirizing clueless media types who don't know that many people would take the radio guy's characterization of bloggers and revise it slightly, to say: "Isn't journalism basically for angry, semi-employed losers who are too untalented or lazy to get real jobs?" I wouldn't say that, of course, but some would.

		Trudeau is making no apologies, however, for B. D.'s salty language or his own dim view of the Bush administration.
		Nevertheless, several papers ran notes warning readers of what was coming, and Trudeau himself issued a statement regretting the strip's "poor timing" and apologizing for any offense the image may have caused readers.

		Garry Trudeau talks to Salon about his comic's 32-year history of controversy.
		After commenting on almost every political and cultural controversy of the past three decades -- from Vietnam to Iraq, from revolutions sexual to Starbucksian -- Garry Trudeau is at it again.
		Trudeau talked with Salon by e-mail, about the masturbation furor, "Doonesbury's" history of controversy, and which of his characters would be most likely to take the study about prostate cancer to, er, heart.

		Garry Trudeau: The physical threats are less explicit than they once were, but I still take them seriously, especially given his recent shotgun assault on his assistant, whom he apparently mistook for a bear.

	"The Latest Hyperbole of Garry Trudeau" by Gary Waltrip
		Through Mark, Garry Trudeau is merely expressing both his ignorance and his hatred for conservative pundits.
		Trudeau, once feared in the Beltway as a player, is no longer taken as seriously as he once was, probably due to his growing shrillness and acerbic tone.
		Trudeau’s latest cartoons over Gropegate are more illustrative of Trudeau’s personal hypocrisy than of his concern about the dignity of women.

		BD, aka Brian Dowling, college football star and one of the lead characters in Garry Trudeau's strip cartoon Doonesbury, lost a leg (and, almost as shocking for aficionados, his helmet).
		Then Trudeau was invited to Kuwait by a commander who had first read Doonesbury in the US army newspaper Stars and Stripes in Vietnam, and thought the cartoonist should meet his men.
		Trudeau may rile the politicians, but it is a different matter with the military.

	A Day In Iraq: The Non-Issue of Armor, Garry Trudeau
		Garry Trudeau is an elitist who rarely comes down out of his Ivory tower...he has a distain for the "hoary masses".
		Trudeau can accept my apologies if he has in fact been over here, but I’m going to assume he hasn’t, and if he has, then I doubt he stayed much longer than a week.
		I read Trudeau's strip and I think that a lot of the time, he draws what he, and the general public, get from the media, without doing further research on it.

		Garry Trudeau has been one of the most influential and persistent voices of liberal America since he started drawing his Doonesbury cartoon strip in 1970.
		Doonesbury creator Garry Trudeau is putting his money where his characters' mouths are and may well find out.
		On Trudeau's website, he specifies that the reward is for anyone who "personally witnessed George W Bush reporting for drills at the Dannelly Air National Guard Base between the months of May and November of 1972".

	Rolling Stone : Doonesbury Goes to War
		Trudeau offered a $10,000 reward to anyone who could verify that Bush fulfilled his duties in the Air National Guard, and he brought home the reality of the war by having his character B.D. lose a leg while fighting in Iraq.
		Breaking his long silence, Trudeau sat down with Rolling Stone in the modest studio in Manhattan where he creates "Doonesbury." Despite the flecks of gray in his hair, at fifty-six he has the easygoing, curious manner of a grad student still fascinated by the world around him.
		But Trudeau gives so few interviews -- he's appeared on TV only once in the past three decades -- that he has earned a reputation as the J.D. Salinger of cartooning.

		Trudeau seems to understand contemporary America from top to bottom, from President King, the administrative head of Walden College who is engaged in a losing fight against grade inflation, down to Elmont, a mover and shaker in the Washington, DC homeless community who blew a fortune in day trading.
		We knew Doonesbury was stuck in a timewarp, but it was still a shock when Trudeau took a year off to re-think his characters' lives.
		So when Trudeau took that year off, to reinvent his characters, had he had a long-term plan for each of them?
