Delighted and thrilled to announce that Megan Herbert has joined the Jacinta di Mase Management, under agent Danielle Binks!

Megan Herbert is an award-winning cartoonist, illustrator and writer whose career writing for television and film, cartooning, live-drawing, and creating children’s books has spanned over twenty years. As well as publishing almost-daily cartoons on social media, she is the newest regular editorial cartoonist for The Age and Sydney Morning Herald newspapers, her work recently earning her the 2022 Kennedy Award for outstanding political cartoon.

Her climate change kids’ book, The Tantrum That Saved The World, was released in March 2022, and was awarded the American Meteorological Society’s Louis J. Battan Award for best children’s book, K-12, and a Moonbeam Award for best environmental kids’ books.

Danielle has long been a fan of Megan’s cartoons, and is very excited for the various youth-lit projects they’ll be working on together.

And about joining the Agency, Megan says; To be invited to join the JdM family is a joy and honour. So much of the creative life is a solitary march; to be linking arms with Danielle now, benefitting from her expertise and guidance, makes all the difference in bringing my projects into the world.

Welcome, Megan Herbert!
