Show Notes

Art Spiegelman is the author of Maus, the graphic novel that changed how we read comics, and how we understand Holocaust literature. A new documentary called "Art Spiegelman : Disaster Is My Muse," tells the story of Spiegelman's life, from his childhood in Rego Park raised by holocaust survivors, to the current-day efforts by some to ban Maus in schools. Art will join me next alongside the film’s co-directors Molly Bernstein and Philip Dolin.
