He was doing newspaper cartoons by age 15 and two years later was working for the William Randolph Hearst papers.

His comic strip Lady Bountiful, debuted in Heart's newspapers in 1902 as a Sunday-comics filler, and the following year jumped to publisher Joseph Pulitzer's The New York World, appearing as the cover feature of May 3, 1903.
