George Herriman (New Orleans, 1880 – Los Angeles, 1944), regarded as one
of the foremost American cartoonists, was part of a generation of
pioneering artists who developed their work in the newspapers that
started to feature comic strips at the turn of the twentieth century.
Herriman’s work was hugely influential among a broad array of artists,
including Willem de Kooning and Öyvind Fahlström, as well as
intellectuals and writers such as E. E. Cummings, T. S. Eliot and Jack
Kerouac.
