> The 2021 recipient of Oregon State University Stone Award for Literary
> Achievement and Stone Lecture speaker is American author, cartoonist and
> teacher, Lynda Barry.
> Barry has worked as a painter, cartoonist, writer, illustrator,
> playwright, editor, commentator and teacher and found all those roles to be
> very much alike.
> The New York Times has described Barry as "among this country’s greatest
> conjoiners of words and images, known for plumbing all kinds of touchy
> subjects in cartoons, comic strips and novels, both graphic and
> illustrated."
> In 1979 while pursuing a career as a painter, Barry began drawing a weekly
> comic strip incorporating stories considered to be incompatible with comics
> at the time. Stories, as Barry puts it, “that had a lot of trouble in
> them.” Widely credited with expanding the literary, thematic and emotional
> range of American comics, Barry’s seminal comic strip, "Ernie Pook’s
> Comeek" ran in alternative newspapers across North America for thirty years.
> Barry has authored 21 books, worked as a commentator for NPR, written for
> Esquire, Mother Jones, Mademoiselle, and Salon, was a frequent guest on the
> Late Show with David Letterman, and much more. Her newest book, "Making
> Comics" won the 2020 Eisner Award for Best Comics-Related Book and Best
> Publication Design.
> The Stone Award:
> Oregon State University alumnus Patrick F. Stone ('74) and his wife,
> Vicki, established a prize to spotlight what they see as one of OSU's best
> kept secrets: the M.F.A. program in creative writing, which has a growing
> reputation for its emphasis on mentoring students, building community and
> reaching out to underserved populations - including at-risk youth and
> military veterans.
> Recipients of the Stone Literary Award give readings, master classes and
> lectures highlighting the value of creative communications in contemporary
> American culture. In conjunction with the prize, an "Everybody Reads"
> program features a selected book by the writer, with events at libraries,
> book clubs and independent bookstores.
> The honorarium for the award is $25,000, making the Stone Award one of the
> most substantial prizes for lifetime literary achievement offered by any
> university in the country.
