Ann Carolyn Telnaes (born in Stockholm, Sweden) is an editorial cartoonist. In 2001 she became the first female cartoonist who won the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning. She also was awarded the Reuben Award, and thus became the first woman to receive two awards: the Reuben Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning.

Telnaes was the subject of a solo exhibit in his own exhibition in the Great Hall in the Thomas Jefferson Building in 2004.

In December 2015, Telnaes created an animated political cartoon that responded to an ad for the presidential campaign of U.S. Senator Ted Cruz, in which his 5- and 7-year old daughters appeared. The older daughter spoke in the ad, reading a line from a book called “The Grinch Who Lost Her Emails” in which she referenced the Grinch’s use of a private email server — an obvious reference to the Hillary Clinton email controversy. In her cartoon, Telnaes portrayed the daughters of the senator as monkeys on leashes, with Cruz holding the leashes and grinding an organ. In response to complaints, Telnaes then posted a comment that the Cruz children were “fair game” for her cartoon because “Ted Cruz uses his children as political props.” Washington Post editor Fred Hiatt eventually retracted and deleted the cartoon and replaced it with the statement that “It’s generally been the policy of our editorial section to leave children out of it. I failed to look at this cartoon before it was published. I understand why Ann thought an exception to the policy was warranted in this case, but I do not agree.” Telnaes’ “fair game” comment was also deleted.
