May 16, 2018 | Summer Arts Preview


The cover of The Georgetowner’s Summer Arts Preview issue is a “self-poortrait” by illustrator Ralph Steadman, who turned 82 on May 15. Raised in North Wales, Steadman became famous as a collaborator with gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson. The American University Museum at the Katzen will open a retrospective of his varied and influential career next month. He has been creating original art for Flying Dog’s labels since 1995.
