PASSAGE: In memoriam
“Sunday Morning” remembers some of the notable figures who left us this week.
ARTS: The trailblazing cartoon art of Barbara Shermund
Artist Barbara Shermund (1899- 1978) was one of the first women cartoonists for The New Yorker and other major magazines, from the 1920s into the ’60s. But she died with barely a trace – and her reputation lay dormant, until a distant relative and a cartoon historian teamed up to connect the dots of Shermund’s life and work. Correspondent Faith Salie talks with investigator Amanda Gormley and curator Caitlin McGurk (author of “Tell Me a Story Where the Bad Girl Wins: The Life and Art of Barbara Shermund”) about resurrecting a trailblazing humorist and her scintillating takes on sex, marriage and society.

MOVIES: The history of the blockbuster movie (YouTube Video)
It’s been assumed that the Hollywood summer blockbuster was born with the 1975 release of Steven Spielberg’s “Jaws,” followed two years later by “Star Wars.” But the film industry’s desire for box office blockbusters existed long before a shark prowled the waters off Amity. Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz talks with actor Stephen Lang (star of the “Avatar” films), critic Dana Stevens, and Charles Acland, author of “American Blockbuster,” about the origin of blockbuster movies – both big-budget spectacles of Biblical proportions, and low-budget films with heart that won a huge audience.
