…Shortly after we moved to Seattle, Wash. where i started pestering the Post-Intelligenter (Spelling?) a Hearst paper, with my cartoons. The Sunday editor finally relented and let me do a weekly 2 col. thing (For free..for experience).
I remember Paul Fung, the great chinese [sic] cartoonist was on staff. I think he later went to N.Y. and drew the old DUMB DORA strip. I was encouraged by staff artists to go to art school and learn to draw so I enrolled in night figure drawing classes at the Seattle Art Club. One of my comrades in class was Keye Luke, now famous in movies and Tv. Keye was a great talent but he always tried to make me believe that I was the greatest….
