Stranger Than Life ft. MK Brown (#50)
Hello friends, here we are, at episode 50 already! Today MK Brown is our very special guest. She has been making cartoons for over 40 years, and she has been published in National Lampoon, The New Yorker and Playboy magazine among many others. She also made an animation series called Dr. N!Godatu, which ran on the Tracy Ullman show, next to a then unknown short animation series known as The Simpsons.
On top of all of this she is an accomplished painter, and has been showing her work just as long as she has been making cartoons. She was kind enough to sit down with me at her home in California and tell us about her work and her story. It’s really good stuff.
