Marlo Meekins is an American cartoonist, comedian, caricaturist, model and actress.[1] She is best known for her work on Vine.[2][3]

Biography[edit]

Meekins was born in Collingswood, New Jersey.[1] In 2003, she earned a bachelor's degree in Illustration from Moore College of Art and Design.[4] She also attended the Rhode Island School of Design.[2]

Meekins' work came to notice when she started a blog in 2005 and was featured in Zoo Weekly Australia[5] and Attack of the Show!, who praised her "Ren & Stimpy-style illustrations."[6] She won the Silver Nosey Award for Caricaturist of the Year at the 2009 International Society of Caricature Artists convention.[7][2]

Meekins' Vine videos often feature crude humor and satire and make use of animation, costumes, props, fake blood, special effects, and her dogs.[8][2] They earned her a place on Comedy Central's first online comedy festival in 2013,[8] where The New York Times praised her "crisp ideas and unexpected visual flourishes".[8] Later that year, Meekins was commissioned by Wendy's to make and share a Vine in her typical style.[1][9]

She is married to Over the Garden Wall art director and double Emmy winner, Nick Cross. [10]
