.....
On Election Day in 1996, The Atlantic Online launched a weekly editorial cartoon feature drawn by Sage Stossel and named (aptly enough) "Sage, Ink." Since then, Stossel's whimsical work has been featured by the New York Times Week in Review, CNN Headline News, Cartoon Arts International/The New York Times Syndicate, The Boston Globe, The Palm Beach Post (during the 2000 election fiasco), Nieman Reports, Editorial Humor, and elsewhere. Her work is also included in Best Editorial Cartoons of the Year, (2005, 2006, 2009 and 2010 editions) and Attack of the Political Cartoonists. Her children's book, On the Loose in Boston, was published in June 2009.
Sage Stossel grew up in a suburb of Boston and attended Harvard University, where she majored in English and American Literature and Languages and did a weekly cartoon strip about college life, called "Jody," for the Harvard Crimson.
After college she took what was intended to be a temporary summer position securing electronic rights to articles from The Atlantic Monthly's archive for use online. Intrigued by The Atlantic's rich history and the creative possibilities in helping to launch a digital edition of the magazine on the Web, she soon joined The Atlantic full time. Her original focus was on creating Flashbacks packages, a feature she still edits. As a result she is quite familiar with The Atlantic's archive (and has amassed an amusing collection of OCR scanning errors). She has since been involved in everything from contributing Web site reviews, author interviews, and illustrations, to hosting message boards and producing the digital edition of The Atlantic on the Web.
She is also the cartoonist for Copy Editor. She lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
