Rochester Area Republican Club

If you would like to have a very entertaining evening this Thursday and want to hear great conservative commentary, then come join us to hear our guest speaker this month.  Henry Payne is an editorial cartoonist and writer for The Detroit News and editor of TheMichiganView.com.

A Pulitzer-Prize nominated cartoonist, Payne produces five local editorial cartoons a week for The News. He also writes and draws a weekly column, “Payne & Ink.” His weekly “CAR-toon” – a humorous look at America’s car-crazy culture – runs exclusively on The News’ web site, detnews.com.

Additionally, Payne draws five cartoons a week on national and international subjects for United Feature Syndicate in New York which distributes his cartoons to 40 newspaper clients worldwide. His work is reprinted in The New York Times, USA Today, National Review, and other publications.

He has been a runner-up for both the Pulitzer and Mencken awards. “Payne’s Sketchbook,” a daily cartoon blog in which he discusses how he creates his cartoons, can be found at detnews.com (as well as HenryPayne.com).

As a writer, Payne reports regularly on economic, consumer and environmental issues. His articles have appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The Weekly Standard magazine, National Review, Reason, Scripps Howard News Service and numerous newspapers around the country. He also is a correspondent for National Review’s popular “Planet Gore” blog.

So we look forward to seeing you.  This is the place in Rochester to meet like minded conservatives and enjoy friendly conversation. 

Terry Gonser, President
