Amy Lago, comics editor for Washington Post Writer's Group (Opus, Candorville, Bo Nanas, Pickles, Red & Rover, Watch Your Head) and formerly comics editor at United Media (Peanuts, The Buckets) is our guest speaker!

I know a couple of folks have said they'd rather have someone from our own side of the drawing board, but I really think this is a coup. Frankly, I'm completely psyched! Amy has worked with all the biggies, and she knows syndication inside and out. Our membership will really benefit from hearing her stories. Seriously, I know Mike Luckovich was entertaining, but what if you can get twenty cartoonists' backstories at the price of one? This is going to be great.
