Episode 219 - Kaamran Hafeez Returns
Kaamran Hafeez joins us for a second time on this week's podcast.
Kaamran has been a New Yorker cartoonist since 2010. He has recently published a book, "The Best of Hafeez: 60 Cartoons with Anecdotes", a very funny and informative compilation of his favorite cartoons. We talk about his book as well as other aspects of his career in cartooning.
You can buy his latest book (as well as his previous book, "You Only Need One Yes") here:

The videos Kaamran mentions of his drawing process can be found at his website:

The ‘Famous Artist Cartoon Course’ that Kaamran mentions is now in the public domain and can be found on-line. Here's one of the websites that hosts it:
