| I'm in training to be tall and blonde / ISBN: 0312401655 OCLC: 4495725 "During the 1970s, [Nicole Hollander] was the graphic designer of a feminist publication, 'The Spokeswoman,' where she had the opportunity to transform the newsletter into a monthly magazine. While designing pages, she occasionally added her own political illustrations. Around 1978, she created a comic strip, 'The Feminist Funnies,' later introducing the character who became Sylvia. Selections from 'The Feminist Funnies' appeared as a calendar, 'Witches, Pigs and Fairy Godmothers: The 1978 Feminist Funnies Appointment Calendar,' and in her 1979 book, 'I'm in Training to Be Tall and Blonde.' The book's success led Field Newspaper Syndicate to distribute Sylvia to newspapers as a daily comic strip starting in 1981"--Wikipedia, March 18, 2019. |
