Topic: The Mon Valley's influence on cartoon art
Guest: Joe Wos, syndicated cartoonist
How Discussed: Joe Wos grew up in North Braddock and is now a nationally syndicated cartoonist. How did growing up in the shadow on U.S. Steel's Edgar Thomson Works influence his early drawings? Who were some of the local figures in the Woodland Hills School District who helped give him his start? Why have so many talented artists come from industrial cities like Pittsburgh and Cleveland?
