Harold Lincoln Gray
ANAP Convention (Ophan Annie), no. 485
n.d.
Harold Gray was a cartoonist that first began working as an assistant to Sidney Smith on the comic strip The Gumps. In 1924, Gray created a strip about the little curly haired boy called Little Orphan Otto. However, the editor of the Chicago Tribune, Joseph M. Patterson, suggested the Gray switch genders and the Little Orphan Annie strip came to fruition. |
