Gilbert Theodore Fox[2] (November 29, 1915[3][4] – May 15, 2004)[5] was an American political cartoonist, comic book artist and editor, and animator.
Fox began his career in animation at Max Fleischer's studio, but left due to labor unrest associated with a 1937 strike.
[6] He left his editorial position at Quality in 1943 to serve in World War II, where he worked for Stars and Stripes.
Once discharged from military service, Fox freelanced for Quality Comics until the early 1950s.
[5] In the late 1980s, Fox created illustrations of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that were used on many licensed products.
