Historical Notes

Pat Oliphant began his sixty year career drawing satirical black and white sketches skewering politicians, covering the tenure of 10 American presidents. In 1967, he won a Pulitzer Prize for "They won't get us to the conference table . . . will they?," Oliphant’s trademark is a penguin character named Puck who sarcastically comments on the scene depicted.
