Bunny Hoest, writer of "The Lockhorns" cartoon, still has jokes after all these years
The Lockhorns have been a reality for readers since 1968, when the comic debuted in Newsday as the “The Lockhorns of Levittown.” After creator Bill Hoest died in 1988 at age 62, his wife Bunny Hoest kept the comic strip alive. Hoest, 86, and artist John Reiner produce 11 panels weekly in about 500 newspapers and online. Hoest spoke about her longevity and where she gets some of her ideas on Friday, Jan. 11.
