This drawing appears on page 8 in the September issue. It's nice these pros still send you 2 copies of the magazine plus 2 tear sheets. Playboy sends you a gratis copy also when your work appears in a particular issue, and so still a few others do . . . but because of the cost of doing business and the declining print markets revenue and the state of the economy, more magazines have stopped this practice which for decades was a standard way of doing business . . . I always make it a practice to read at least a couple articles in the magazine to get a "feel" of their particular niche in their corporate audience.
After graduating from Tucson High School in 1953 I attended the Billy Hon School of Cartooning in Los Angeles.
I then joined the U.S. Marines for four years, and ended up in Washington, D.C..
After getting honourably discharged, I enrolled at the Corcoran School of Art where I studied figure drawing.
In 1976 I founded and was CEO of a 34 man sign company specializing in Trade Show Decorations, Exhibits and Signage for the largest 100 Associations in the U.S. We later expanded and added an electrical sign division where we designed and manufactured electrical signs for many Fortune 500 companies.
The company was sold in 2oo2. I now draw cartoons passionately full-time from my mountain-top home and studio in wild & wonderful West Virginia.
My cartoons have appeared regularly in the Wall Street Journal, Barron's, Harvard Business Review, Reader's Digest, etc. and recently Playboy magazine where Mr. Hefner just purchased 15 colour cartoons in May and June of 2007.

This has got to be one of the funniest cartoons I have seen in quite some time. Great job!
