I was sentenced in 1998 to 40 years in prison for selling marijuana. Even as it is decriminalized, I remain behind bars.

420
One of my lesser-known, early-career gigs in the 1990s was serving as editorial cartoonist for High Times magazine. Looking back, it’s amazing to think how much has changed in terms of marijuana laws, medical or otherwise. Here’s a cartoon of mine from back in the day, which can be sung to the tune of Bob Dylan’s “Rainy Day Women #12 & 35” (ie “Everybody Must Get Stoned”). Happy 420 to all who choose to partake!
