On Monday, March 15, 2004, in the Library of Congress's Mumford Room, Nicole Hollander, creator of the lively comic strip Sylvia, humorously addressed the challenges of staying creative, based on her own artistic career and life. With wry humor and wit, she charmed an audience of Library staff, cartoonists, and devoted followers of her work as she unveiled strategies for coping with creative crisis, showing slides of her elegantly drawn comic, her work place, and neighborhood. The Prints and Photographs Division mounted a small display of original drawings by Hollander that were selected from her recent gift of twenty-two drawings to the Library.
