Private Lives of Public Figures

A long-running, single-issue comic from St. Martin's Press, Private Lives of Public Figures (2003–present) is a satirical showcase of the imagined, unglamorous, and often absurd private moments of historical and cultural icons. Artist Drew Friedman, the series' most frequent contributor, brings his signature, meticulously textured style to these bitingly funny, one-page vignettes. The comic matters as a sustained, single-issue platform for Friedman's singular vision, offering a uniquely unvarnished and humorous take on the foibles of fame.
