Cartoonist KeefKnight rose to fame with “The K Chronicles,” an autobiographical comic strip that proffered satirical observations of life in SF. Now his wit is on display both at cartoonart and in a live-action comedy show WokeHulu.
Cartoonist Keith Knight stands with some of his comics that are on display at the Cartoon Art Museum. Knight rose to fame with “The K Chronicles,” an autobiographical comic strip that proffered satirical observations of life in San Francisco, and he now has a live-action comedy show on Hulu called “Woke.”
Both works are displayed in the Cartoon Art Museum’s exhibit “Keith Knight’s WOKE in San Francisco.” The exhibit gives attendees a retrospective look at Knight’s 17-year cartooning career in The City, while also illustrating how the strips inspired the creation of Knight’s television show. Except for the politicians, Knight said, “I only make fun of people and things I love,” and insists that he makes jokes at his expense more than anyone else.
In 2007, Knight moved to Los Angeles in search of a new project that would challenge him creatively and play to his strengths as a cartoonist. He teamed up with screenwriter Marshall Todd of “Barbershop” fame to create “Woke,” a comedy series centered around a fictionalized version of Knight. Season one revolves around Keef wanting to keep his cartoons light by not commenting on social and political issues. This approach falls apart when Keef is racially profiled by the police, an ordeal which draws from Knight’s experiences.
