Other Magazine Contributions

Though his New Yorker drawings are well known, Steinberg’s frequent contributions to other magazines have received little attention. Unconstrained by The New Yorker’s proscription of color for interior art and the limitations of its three-column format, Steinberg let loose with an array of styles, media, and themes, from black-and-white ink drawings to full-color paintings and collage assemblages.14
