Virgil Franklin Partch
Virgil Franklin Partch, known by his pen name "VIP," was one of the most-prominent American gag cartoonists of the postwar era. After a brief period working for Disney studios—his departure was connected to the Disney animators' strike of 1941—he began selling gag cartoons to magazines, including Collier's and True . He also had a successful syndicated comic strip, "Big George," and illustrated a number of children's books.
His cousin was the composer Harry Partch.
