Universal Signs Higgins and Cohen

By: Dave Astor Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist Jack Higgins and ethics columnist Randy Cohen are joining the roster of Universal Press Syndicate.

Universal described the work of Higgins, who's with the Chicago Sun-Times, as "just right of center." He won his Pulitzer in 1989.

Cohen, who writes "The Ethicist" each week for The New York Times Magazine, was previously distributed by the New York Times Syndicate. He's the author of a column collection called "The Good, the Bad, and the Difference," and a former humor writer for David Letterman.
