I love that two amazing map-makers won MacArthur Foundation genius grants this year: Tonika Lewis Johnson, and Margaret Wickens Pearce.

Pearce's work in particular I've been following for years, and according to Wikipedia she is the first awardee in history with "cartographer" as a title: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacArthur_Fellows_Program#2025

But unfortunately neither Johnson or Pearce has their own #Wikipedia article. Seems like something we could fix!
