\"McCay<\/a>The Archives & Rare Books Library will hold its final \u201c50 Minutes-1 Book\u201d presentation of the academic year on Thursday, April 17, at 12 noon in 814 Blegen Library.\u00a0 Greg Hand, associate vice president for Government Relations and University Communications, will talk about Winsor McCay, a recognized pioneer of American comic strips.\u00a0 \u00a0McCay\u2019s genius as an artist, cartoonist and animator has been hailed by Maurice Sendak and celebrated by a \u201cGoogle Doodle.\u201d His \u201cLittle Nemo In Slumberland\u201d is recognized as the pinnacle of comic strip art and his \u201cGertie The Dinosaur\u201d was unsurpassed until the Golden Age of Walt Disney and Chuck Jones. It is little known that McCay spent 13 years in Cincinnati.<\/p>\n

\"McCay<\/a><\/p>\n

Hand, who has been researching the artist for several years, will explore McCay\u2019s sojourn in the Queen City and demonstrate that his experiences here from 1890 to 1903, including a connection to the University of Cincinnati, set the stage for the renowned masterpieces.<\/p>\n

The ARB lecture series is an informal one of conversation and exploration into the archival and rare book holdings of the University of Cincinnati.\u00a0 Bring your lunch, bring a friend, and enjoy an entertaining look at a fascinating cartoonist.<\/p>\n
