RIP, Tony Auth
Very sad news out of Philadelphia this weekend, long-time UU creator and Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist Tony Auth has passed. I thought this animation he did of his trip to France a few years ago was a nice glimpse into Tony's sense of humor and the joy he found in life.
