Clare Mallison / Bloomberg Weekend / Why America Can’t Stop Telling the Roy Cohn Story

Clare Mallison was commissioned by Bloomberg to create an editorial illustration for the Weekend Review, accompanying an article exploring the enduring fascination with Roy Cohn, the controversial American lawyer and political power broker.

The illustration captures the themes of power, politics, influence and ambition at the heart of the story, which examines why America continues to revisit Roy Cohn’s legacy decades after his death.
