By 2001, Lee Lorenz was no longer working as cartoon editor for The New Yorker, but he still played the cornet with his jazz band and he was still friends with many cartoonists, including Frenchman Jean-Jacques Sempé. Un peu de Paris (A Little Bit of Paris) was published in September of 2001. The following month, Sempé dedicated a copy of the book to Lorenz, including an ink drawing of a cornet player at a window in the Hotel Aramis.
