We sit down with Andy Friedman, fine artist, illustrator, musician, writer and downright cool hobbyist to talk about his journey through the hobby to becoming an artist for Topps cards and getting his very own exclusive set, and the inspiration for his work that has, in its various forms, been published in The New York Times, Rolling Stone, GQ, Vanity Fair, Ebony, The Atlantic, Sports Illustrated, Golf Digest, The Paris Review, New York, Esquire, The New York Times Magazine (where his art has twice graced the cover), and The New Yorker, where his cartoons and award-winning caricatures of cultural luminaries have appeared since 1999. Despite his accolades, you will now find Andy among the vendors at sports card shows selling his orginal art cards, many of which were the originals for Topps cards you can buy today. His story is gripping and he authentically loves and lives the hobby so join us live and bring your questions and comments as they will be in play.
