The "unrecognised" female comic artists

Female comic artists often go "unrecognised", according to cartoonist and graphic novelist Posy Simmonds, creator of the Tamara Drewe series.

Speaking to Today presenter Sarah Montague ahead of a new exhibition at the House of Illustration showcasing the work of female artists, she talks about how historically there have been "ups and downs" for women illustrators.
