Daniel R. Fitzpatrick

Daniel Robert Fitzpatrick (March 5, 1891 – May 18, 1969) was a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner and an editorial cartoonist for the St. Louis Dispatch from 1913 to 1958.

Joining the St. Louis Post Dispatch in 1913, Fitzpatrick served as its editorial cartoonist until 1958.

In 1940 the cartoonist and several other Post Dispatch staff members were cited with contempt of court because they criticized the dismissal of an extortion suit against a state representative.

In the spring of 1941 the New York City's Associated American Artists Gallery held its second exhibition of Fitzpatrick's cartoons.

[2] Washington University in St. Louis, presented Fitzpatrick the honorary degree of Doctor of Letters in 1949.
