Elisabeth McNair, a cartoonist and graphic designer based in Atlanta, Georgia, has been drawing since childhood, using humor to record her observations of the foibles and frailties of human nature. As part of the design studio Family’s, her work has been recognized internationally and featured in publications such as Bon Appétit and Monocle. She has been cartooning for The New Yorker since 2018.
When she’s not drawing, she’s usually helping run Harry’s Family’s Inconvenience — a tiny convenience store in front of Family’s studio — or spending time with her own little family: her husband Alvin, Cormac the cat, and Harry the (dirty) dog.
