Biography
cartoonist, painter and cyclist, is a controversial world champion cyclist born in USA (aged 34 in 1998) who represented Australia in cycling in the 1990s despite retaining her US citizenship. Having completed 'graphic art courses’, she draws cartoons and caricatures signed “Lucy” of competitors and officials with whom she has clashed. She also paints in acrylics; one of her murals covers a wall at the Australian Institute of Sport, Adelaide. She was living in Perth in 1998 but may since have returned to America. An article by Lindy Joubert in Melbourne’s Sunday Herald-Sun , 25 October 1998, p.25, included examples, one of a sheep being chased by three kiwis on bikes and one a self-portrait lying on the ground bound, with a muscly young man with a whip standing on her.
