Duuring the conference |
After the conference: the assault of fans |
Joseph Lambert is an American cartoonist and illustrator. He was born in 1984 in Kansas and actually lives in Vermont. He graduated from the Center for Cartoon Studies. He received twice the Eisner Price for his most famous comic, "Annie Sullivan & Helen Keller" published in 2012.
On Tuesday December the 2nd, Joseph Lambert came at the Lycée St-Charles, because of his nomination at the Prix Littéraire des Lycéens et Apprentis 2015. Thanks to our teachers, we had the opportunity to meet him during a "private time" at the school library. We obviously could ask him questions that we have kept in our curious minds since we have read his incredible comic. Joseph Lambert answered us with all his sincerity, he took time to make special drawings for everyone of us and to take photos with people who wanted to. He also showed us some personal drawings (we all have VERY curious minds!!).
That was a really rewarding experience to have the opportunity to talk to Joseph Lambert. His singular personality was fascinating and we are all now convinced he is a great artist. We also want to thank him (and his great "team" too) very much for the patience and time he spent with us and for his kindness and generosity. There was a real exchange and we are glad he shared this special moment with us.

DeleteIt was indeed a very special moment. If you want to share this experience with more people and maybe get a chance to interact further with Joseph Lambert, feel free to post an article or comments on the Prix Littéraire blog http://blog.prixpaca.com/
ReplyDeleteYou'll notice as well that you can do an homage to "Annie Sullivan & Helen Keller" by taking a photo for the photo contest. I am tempted myself.
