The 60th anniversary of Peanuts is only two months away. Here are some related items of note:

• Jeannie Schulz was at the 2010 Comic-Con in San Diego, where she received a well-deserved Bob Clampett Humanitarian Award.
• The Santa Rosa Press Democrat has an article about Craig Schulz, who runs Creative Associates, the company his father started to handle Peanuts licensing.
• Amy Schulz Johnson had a birthday a couple of days ago. Happy birthday, Amy!



• Nat Gertler on the AAUGH! blog points out an item about the time in 1960 when Lucy van Pelt submitted a political cartoon to a newspaper.

Rheta Grimsley Johnson has a new book called Enchanted Evening Barbie & the Second Coming: A Memoir. My copy arrived from Amazon a few days ago. When Rheta was married to cartoonist Jimmy Johnson, she wrote Good Grief: The Story of Charles M. Schulz, the first authorized biography of Sparky. Rheta recently spoke at the Sixth Annual Clarksville Writer’s Conference in Tennessee.
