University Park Artist Makes Top 20 in New Yorker Contest

"Nearly 300 drawings poured in to suggest redefinitions of Eustace Tilley, "the presiding dandy" of The New Yorker magazine.

Entries ranged from the "erotic to the pontifical," according to staff. There was "Leather Daddy Eustace" by an artist from California. And "Torched Tilley" by a Floridian.

Jennifer Culbertson of University Park submitted "Henri Touleustace La Tilley" at the last minute.

The magazine ran a few of the winners in its anniversary issue, which portrays Eustace as Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama on the cover. Other winners were posted on the magazine's Web site.

Two other winners were from Texas – Ben Rollman of Pfugerville and David DeGrand of Fort Worth." - Dallas Morning News
