Dorthea Antonette〔(Seda entry, Who's Who of American Comic Books, 1928–1999 ).〕 "Dori" Seda (1951 – February 25, 1988)〔"''Lonely Nights'' Artist Dori Seda Dead At 37," ''The Comics Journal'' #121 (April 1988).〕 was an artist best known for her underground comix work of the 1980s. Her comics combined exaggerated fantasy and ribald humor with documentation of her life in the Mission District of San Francisco, California. Seda was originally a painter and ceramics artist, graduating from in Illinois State University with a B.A. in art.〔 To pursue her interest in comics, she took a job as a bookkeeper at the San Francisco publisher Last Gasp. Her first published comics work appeared in Robert Crumb's anthology magazine ''Weirdo'' in 1981. She was subsequently published in ''Wimmen's Comix'', ''San Francisco Comic Book'', ''Viper'', ''Yellow Silk'', ''Prime Cuts'', ''Cannibal Romance'', ''Weird Smut Comix'', ''Tits & Clits'', and her solo book ''Lonely Nights Comics'' (which was banned in England upon its release). A heavy smoker who suffered from emphysema, she may also have contracted silicosis from her ceramics materials. Seda died at age 37〔 from respiratory failure after catching the flu. (Ironically, Seda occasionally used the pen name Sylvia Silicosis.)〔 Her work has been collected in the book ''Dori Stories'' (ISBN 0-86719-375-1), which also includes memorial tributes, including the story "Dori Bangs" by Bruce Sterling, which imagines a future marriage between her and music critic Lester Bangs (whom she never met). == Dori Seda Memorial Award for Women == In 1988, Last Gasp established the Dori Seda Memorial Award for Women;〔"Dori Seda Award for Women," ''The Comics Journal'' #123 (July 1988), pp. 13-14.〕 the first recipient was Carol Tyler. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dori Seda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
