BIO


Hi-I'm Tony Bayer. I graduated from Indiana University with a degree in Liberal Arts and a Government Major in '98. With computerization of commercial art, I decided to change course to pursue a career in that field, where perhaps I could also integrate cartooning.

After taking more classes in graphic design while working at a printshop, I went on to produce ads for Paxton Media publications and their affiliated websites. In 2003, my editorial cartoons began appearing in The News-Dispatch of Michigan City, Indiana. As of 2011, they are also featured in The La Porte Herald-Argus.

Some of my cartoons have appeared in the Best Editorial Cartoons Of The Year, 2005 to 2012 Editions. My graphic design honors include a Hoosier State Press Association award for Best Use of Graphics ('03) and Associated Press awards for Best Use of Graphics ('05, '06, and '07). I am also available for freelance work at ajbayer76@gmail.com

I reside with my wife in La Porte, Indiana, with a baby girl on the way.
