This is a review of some beautiful matrix models related to the moduli space of Riemann surfaces as well as to noncritical c=1 string theory at self-dual radius. These include the Penner model and the W-infinity model, which have different origins but are equivalent to each other. In the final section, which is new material, it is shown that these models are also equivalent to a Liouville matrix model. We speculate that this might be interpreted in terms of N D-instantons of the c=1 string.

Every Feynman diagram in a two-matrix model is mapped to a unique closed string worldsheet and Belyi embedding, with the diagram's weight equal to the string action.
