Creators

‼️Congratulations to Creators' own Gary Markstein: He just won third place in the 2025 National Headliner Awards in the category of Editorial Cartooning! The award is one of the most prestigious honors in American journalism. 🙌 Readers love Gary's work for its blend of political commentary, wit and visual impact. His cartoons tackle a wide range of issues such as partisan dysfunction, censorship and social hypocrisy. Gary also co-created the nationally syndicated daily comic strip “Daddy’s Home” with fellow cartoonist Tony Rubino. Gary has been an editorial cartoonist with Creators since 2008, and we are proud to represent him! 🤩🥳👏 #editorialcartoon #politics #creators #commentary #comic #cartoon #artist #award #nationalheadliner #journalism #tonyrubino #garymarkstein

Willie Mays so affected writer Paul Kocak’s life that Paul titled his own memoir “Chasing Willie Mays” — and it, of course, includes encounters with Willie himself (available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books & Google Books; links can be found at creators.com/books/chasing-…)

Happy belated birthday (May 6), Willie Mays! Willie, also known as “the Say Hey Kid,” played in the Negro Leagues in high school and later became an MLB player. He’s regarded as one of the all-time greats in baseball.

In this compelling collection, we find immigrants everywhere. These stories explore the deep ambiguities in how we perceive each other; readers will grow to love Friedman’s characters, despite their flaws, as they grapple toward a deeper caring for the world around them.

Huge congratulations to D. Dina Friedman, author of short story collection “Immigrants,” which is the first runner-up in the short story category for the Eric Hoffer Book Award!
