Born in Argentina in 1973, Ricardo Liniers Siri (a.k.a. Liniers) started his artistic career making
fanzines for his friends when he realized he was not made for law school.
He is the creator of the daily strip Macanudo and graphic novels for younger readers, including
the Eisner Award-winning Good Night, Planet. For the last 23 years, Liniers has been writing and drawing Macanudo, which has been published daily in Argentina by La Nación since 2002 and as English-language collections in the United States since 2014. Macanudo is also published in El Pais (Spain) and O Globo (Brazil), and debuted in the US market in September 2018 through a partnership with Hearst-owned King Features Syndicate. It has grown to be one of the most celebrated cartoon strips in South America, and Liniers has become one of the continent’s most popular cartoonists. Liniers won the Inkpot Award for career achievement in 2018, and the Reuben Award for Best Newspaper Comic Strips in 2021.
Together with his wife Angie he founded Editorial Común with the aim of publishing graphic novel by local and foreign authors.
He has more than 50 books published, many of which have been translated to English, French, Italian, Czech, German, Portuguese, Korean and Chinese.
He has toured Latin America and Spain with his friend, musician Kevin Johansen, drawing on
stage while Kevin’s band performs.
He performs stand up comedy with his friend and colleague, Chilean artist Alberto Montt.
He has illustrated 7 covers of The New Yorker magazine and has recently illustrated the cover of the Rolling Stone magazine, among other highly popular publications.
Liniers currently resides in Vermont drawing Macanudo daily.
“We are so excited that a creative force like Papercutz is releasing our story. We hope to reach as many readers as possible. This is our first collaboration. It is weird to work with someone you live with, so drawing and ideas were passed back and forth during road trips, dinners, right before a movie, or when we woke up in the morning. We wanted to write a mystery that had elements of the supernatural, and Ricardo had told me he really wanted to draw lighthouses. When I stumbled across the figure of the woman lighthouse keeper in a history of American lighthouses, I knew that it was what the story would be about and everything grew from there. I hope that this reminds us all that women have been doing remarkable things for centuries, way before the modern concept of feminism was born.”
