In the Fall of 2007 ILLUSTRATION Magazine published an article I wrote titled -
"Remembering Willard Mullin and the Lost Art of Sports Cartooning."
When I was a kid I wanted to be a Sports Cartoonist - a genre that doesn't even exist anymore. I drew Editorial Cartoons for my school paper The Sewanhaka Chieftain in Floral Park, NY, and won a number of Empire State Scholastic Press Awards for my work. You can find a few examples of my early cartoons on the Trivia Page.
My favorite cartoonist was Willard Mullin who drew for The New York World Telelgram. When I was a kid I wrote him and a few days later I received an original cartoon that had been in the paper a week before. It was a wonderful rendering of the race horse Olympia. He wrote a note to me at the bottom of the 20" x 16" cartoon. Sadly enough that original cartoon by Mullin got lost during a family move while I was in service.
