Faces on the Barroom Floor
The Omaha Press Club Face on the Barroom Floor honors newsmakers who have had an impact on the community.
The caricatures are drawn by artists Jim Horan, who worked for the Omaha World-Herald when he began drawing the Faces in 1971 (until 2020), and now by caricature artist Wayne Sealy.
