Author Description Julie Doucet is a Canadian underground cartoonist and artist, best known for her autobiographical works such as <i>Dirty Plotte</i> and <i>My New York Diary</i>.<br /><br />Doucet began cartooning in 1987. Her efforts quickly began to attract critical attention, and she won the 1991 Harvey Award for "Best New Talent".<br />Shortly thereafter, she moved to New York. Although she moved to Seattle the following year, her experiences in New York formed the basis of the critically-acclaimed <i>My New York Diary</i> (1999). She moved from Seattle to Berlin in 1995, before finally returning to Montreal in 1998. Once there, she released the twelfth and final issue of Dirty Plotte before beginning a brief hiatus from comics.<br />She returned to the field in 2000 with <i>The Madame Paul Affair</i>, a slice-of-life look at contemporary Montreal which was originally serialized in Ici-Montreal, a local alternative weekly. At the same time, she was branching out into more experimental territory, culminating with the 2001 release of <i>Long Time Relationship</i>, a collection of prints and engravings. In 2004, Doucet also published in French an illustrated diary (Journal) chronicling about a year of her life and, in 2006, an autobiography made from a collage of words cut from magazines and newspapers (J comme Je). <br />In 2007, Doucet published <i>365 Days</i>, in which she chronicles her life for a year, starting in late 2002. <br />After a long hiatus, Doucet came back to publication with <i>Time Zone J</i> (2022).<br />
