Denise Dorrance
Denise Dorrance is an American-born cartoonist and illustrator who publishes under the name Dorrance. Born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, she moved to New York in her early twenties where she worked in the fashion department of Cosmopolitan magazine, later moved into photography, and eventually ran Magnum Photos corporate photography division. In 1992 she moved to London and, in spite of herself, began a successful career as a cartoonist and book illustrator. In 2013 a collection of her cartoons was published by Idlewild, titled "It's All About Mimi". Mimi's is the story of a woman trying to balance life as a fashionista and a mother - and considering Mimi's desire for minimalism and all things chic, it doesn't come naturally! Her sharply ironic work appears regularly in magazines and newspapers such as The Spectator, Red, The Sunday Times and others. 'Mimi by Dorrance' ran as a weekly humorous cartoon for The Mail on Sunday's "You" magazine, and she illustrated a weekly syndicated column for News Life Media in Australia. A range of Dorrance greeting cards is published worldwide by UK Greetings and Mint publishing. Dorrance is married to documentary filmmaker Paul Yule, with whom she has a son. Books
