Hy Rosen

Hy Rosen attended several art studies (a.o. Art Students League, Chicago Art Institute, Cooper Union High School) and began working as a political cartoonist for the Albany Times-Union in 1945, a position he held until 1989. He began working as a comic book artist in the late 1940s, doing 'Bonnie' for National/DC and romance stories for St. John Publishing (Hollywood Confessions). Up until the mid-1950s, he worked mainly for Timely/Atlas, drawing both funny and realistic features.

He was one of the regulars on the 'Georgie' and 'Homer Hooper' comic books and did art on may romance, war and horror titles. From 1954 to 1962, he worked for Dell Publishing on 'I Love Lucy'. Rosen was a member of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists (AAEC) since its founding in 1957 and served as its president in 1972.
