Giacomo Gambineri is an illustrator born in Genova, Italy. Professionally, he draws on magazines&nmdash;sometimes he's asked to so, other times he just walks into a newsstand with a sharpie. His doodles are featured weekly in the New York Times Magazine, but they are just as likely to ruin the reputation of many other known publications. Nowadays, he's hiding somewhere in France, with his wife and daughter.
