Download Event


Thursday, December 04, 2008 at 7:00pm until 8:00pm

At Hillel UW
(4745 17th Ave NE Seattle, WA 98105)



Miriam Libicki brings her innovative comics reading/slideshow to UW Hillel! Join the acclaimed autobiographical cartoonist as she dramatically reads from her Israeli Army memoirs, as well as her provocative drawn essays "Towards a Hot Jew," Ceasefire," and "Jewish Memoir Goes Pow! Zap! Oy!" In between, Miriam will discuss her influences, what led her to choose comics as a format, why she started the jobnik! series, her self-publishing experience and how her work has been received thus far (in Israel and elsewhere).

Q&A and book signing to follow. Miriam will be bringing the brand-new collection of her army comics, "Jobnik!: An American Girl's Adventures in the Israeli Army," (in stores December 3rd) as well as various mini-comics and essays.
