Lalo Alcaraz is perhaps the most prolific Chicano artist in the nation. Lalo has been busy for over two decades chronicling the political ascendancy of Latinos in America and vigorously pushing the boundaries of Chicano art in the Post Chicano Art Era.

He is the creator of the first nationally syndicated, politically themed Latino daily comic strip, "La Cucaracha," which is read in over 100 newspapers including the Los Angeles Times by Universal Press Syndicate, home of "Doonesbury" and "The Boondocks."

Lalo has produced editorial cartoons for The LA Weekly since 1992 and also creates editorial cartoons in English and Spanish for Universal. His work has appeared in The New York Times, The Village Voice, The L.A. Times, Variety, Hispanic Magazine, Latina Magazine, Mexico's La Jornada, Germany's BUNTE and many other publications. Alcaraz and his work has been featured on CNN, the CBS Evening News, ABC, NBC, Univision, Telemundo, PBS, Al-Jazeera TV, NPR, Air America Radio and on Spain's Radio Nacional de España. MI Ciudad Magazine named him "Best Latino Cartoonist in Los Angeles," and Lalo has also been featured by Rolling Stone Magazine, Los Angeles Magazine, Associated Press, Editor & Publisher and profiled extensively in The Comics Journal.
