Hilary Price is a cartoonist, storyteller, and speaker. Her comic strip Rhymes with Orange appears in newspapers internationally and is a four time winner of Best Newspaper Panel Cartoon by the National Cartoonists Society.

Hilary graduated from Stanford University, and at the age of 25 became the youngest-ever female syndicated newspaper cartoonist. Her journey exemplifies passion and innovation, introducing perspectives that did not exist on the comics page. Other shiny trophies include an Inkpot Award for Career Achievement from the San Diego Comic Con International, and the Elzie Segar Award from the National Cartoonists Society for making a unique and outstanding contribution to the profession of cartooning.  Thanks to these, her dusting technique is first rate. 

Hilary teaches single panel cartooning at The Center For Cartoon Studies in White River Junction, VT.  She tells stories for The Moth and on NPR. Her work has been collected in The San Francisco Museum of Cartoon Art, The Billy Ireland Cartoon Museum at the Ohio State University and in The Library of Congress.

When not at her drawing table, Hilary walks her overly large dog and plays ice hockey. She and her partner live in western Massachusetts.  

She now collaborates on Rhymes With Orange with Canadian cartoonist Rina Piccolo.

Here are what some previous clients had to say:

"Hilary Price’s presentation had the audience of teens, family members and teachers riveted at the Vermont Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. It was particularly targeted to young artists and writers who are beginning their own creative lives and to those who may not even know that they have creative talent yet. Her talk detailed her journey as a young person trying to find her way in the world, using early drawings, memorabilia, and selections from her comic strip that kept the audience surprised and laughing. All the while, she was drawing cartoons live!

-Susan Calabria, Education Curator, Brattleboro VT Museum and Art Center


"Hilary Price is an amazing cartoonist, educator, and communicator. Her presentation was not just showing cartoons; it was an interactive exploration of the process of an artist. The result was an interesting, entertaining, and thought-provoking hour. Our students went to the presentation not knowing what to expect, and came out enthralled. I plan on having Hilary come to our school again. She is truly a delight!"

-Phil O'Donoghue, Ovations Speakers Coordinator at Springfield Technical Community College

 

"We feel lucky to have found Hilary as a speaker. Almost a month after our event, women are still talking about the fun they had hearing her story. She is quite the talented presenter – using her art to illustrate her personal story. We found Hilary to be genuine, engaging, approachable and very entertaining. We would wholeheartedly recommend her as a speaker for any audience!"

– Arielle Hendel, Chief Development Officer, Jewish Federation of Silicon Valley

 

"What a hit you made yesterday! Students of all different stripes came away feeling they learned a lot -- and laughed a lot. They especially enjoyed all you had to say about the creative process, and of course, the faculty loved the "derriere in the chair" moment. I loved the way you wove process and product together seamlessly, showing clearly how you might move from idea, to planning, to drafting, to finishing. It was some of the best teaching I've ever seen done anywhere."

– Lucille Stott, English Dept., Concord Academy
