Scott Stantis
draws five editorial cartoons a week for the Chicago Tribune
and is also a member of the Tribune's editorial board. His
editorial cartoons are syndicated in over 400 newspapers around the
world. He also creates the comic strip "Prickly City," which is
syndicated in over 125 newspapers.
On Mondays he does a self-described "weekly rant" for WGN America's
9 pm newscast. He also teams up with Chicago Tribune
columnist Eric Zorn to do a weekly podcast called "The Prickly Pair
Podcast."
Scott writes, "I was born in San Diego. Went to junior and senior
high school in Madison, Wisconsin. Returned to Southern
California where I feel in love with editorial cartooning and my
wife of three decades, Janien Fadich. We now live in Chicago and
have two grown sons."
Scott joined the Tribune staff as editorial cartoonist in
2009.

About
the Cigar Society of Chicago
ONE OF THE OLDEST AND greatest
traditions of the city clubs of Chicago is the discussion of
intellectual, social, legal, artistic, historical, scientific,
musical, theatrical, and philosophical issues in the company of
educated, bright, and appropriately provocative individuals, all
under the beneficent influence of substantial amounts of tobacco
and spirits. The
Cigar Society of Chicago embraces this tradition and
extends it with its Informal Smokers,
University Series lectures, and Cigar Society Dinners,
in which cigars, and from time to time pipes and cigarettes,
appear as an important component of our version of the classical
symposium. To be included in the Cigar Society's
mailing list, write to the Secretary at
CigarSociety@logicophilosophicus.org.
