About This Item
n.p., 1997. Drawing. Fine, shrinkwrapped with a cardboard backing on which Norkin has written his name, address, phone number, and an insurance value. Sam Norkin. Original pen and ink on paper, 15" x 12", SIGNED by the artist and titled at the bottom in pencil. An image of three actors--Willis Sparks, Arnie Burton, and Anne O'Sullivan--performing in MERE MORTALS AND OTHERS by David Ives, which opened Off Broadway in 1997. Norkin's theater caricatures, similar in style to that of Hirschfeld, primarily appeared weekly in the NEW YORK DAILY NEWS, for which he was a cultural editor, for 26 years and the NEW YORK HERALD TRIBUNE for 15 years, but also many other publications and books. He was also an art critic for the Carnegie Hall house program, where this particular drawing may have appeared. In all he published more than 4000 drawings until his death at the age of 94 in 2011.
