Harvey Pekar (Author)
Studs Terkel’s Working (1974) was one of the first attempts to chronicle the lives and attitudes of America’s workforce. This black-and-white graphic adaptation, faithfully rendered by some of today’s most prominent alternative cartoonists, brings a variety of professions into focus: a farm worker, a hooker, a barber, an organizer, a garbage man, and many others. Everyone interviewed explains the hardships and joys of working (surprisingly, the garbage man seems to derive more pleasure from his job than a successful actor does from his). All these life stories give us new insights and ways to approach the world of work. The artwork supports rather than overpowers the testimonies, and the adapters have tried to remain faithful to Terkel’s oral style. Overseen by scholar Paul Buhle and working-class comics creator Harvey Pekar (American Splendor), this valuable adaptation is both a companion and an introduction to the work of Studs Terkel. -
