About the Author
George Booth is, paradoxically, a late bloomer who started drawing "funny pictures" when he was three but didn't begin his thirty-year association with The New Yorker until he was in his forties. Mr. Booth got his professional start in the Marines while on the staff of Leatherneck, the USMC's official publication, and from there his work began to appear in Collier's and other periodicals. Booth was on the eve of breaking through in The Saturday Evening Post when it folded, with the ultimately happy result that Booth, like Charles Barsotti, was picked up by the New Yorker editor William Shawn. A self-described "corn belt" Missourian, Booth has never lost that certain Mark Twain flavor of small-town eccentricity. He lives with his wife, Dione, on Long Island.
Lee Lorenz, an acclaimed cartoonist, was art editor of The New Yorker from 1973 through 1993. Mr. Lorenz and his family live in western Connecticut.
