CONTENT WARNING: discussion of pregnancy loss

Cartoonist Chari Pere discusses how she used art to share her experiences with pregnancy loss.

Cartoonist Chari Pere is on a mission to create art that is heartfelt, funny, and relatable–and has most recently done so with her award-winning "Unspoken" Cartoonmentary series, shedding light on miscarriage, pregnancy loss, and other taboo topics. She has previously worked with Red Bull, Mad Magazine, Gretchen Rubin, Comedy Central, Mayim Bialik, Bud Light, and Purina. During the pandemic, her “Corona Mama” comic series and coloring books brought humor to the challenge of parenting in lockdown. In 2024, she was named Artist of the Year by JewCE (the Jewish Comics Experience). Chari lives in Teaneck, NJ with her husband and three kids.
