ILLUSTRATOR/ARTIST:

Walter Harrison Cady(1877–1970) was an Americanillustratorand author, best known for hisPeter Rabbitcomic strip which he wrote and drew for 28 years.

Cady was born inGardner,Massachusetts, to a town selectman, Edwin Cady, who ran a local general store. His father fostered a love of nature and encouraged his art skills. Cady entered an apprenticeship with a local painter, Parker Perkins. His first publication came as early as 1894: an illustration in a supplement toHarper\'s Young People(signedWalter H. Cady).

Harrison was 18 when his father was killed in Boston. He moved toNew York Cityand within a year found work as an illustrator with theBrooklyn Eaglenewspaper. His salary of $10 a week made it possible for him to support his mother; the two lived in aGreenwich Villagecold-water flat. He stayed at theBrooklyn Eaglefor four years, while also freelancing to other publications.

Cady\'s first published comic strip wasJolly Jumpers, which ran from 1912 to 1914 via the Publishers Press syndicate.

His income increased considerably afterLifeeditorJohn Ames Mitchellsigned Cady as staff artist and cartoonist. This led to a long career as a newspaper and magazine illustrator, as well as numerouschildren\'s books, featuring both fantastic and realistic animal illustrations.

Cady\'sPeter Rabbitcomic strip, which was based onThornton Burgess\'Peter Cottontailstories(as opposed toBeatrix Potter\'s version) was launched by theNew York Herald Tribune Syndicateon August 15, 1920. He continued to write and draw the strip for almost three decades. Cady had a long association with Burgess, illustrating the writer\'s books, includingHappy Jack, and his daily newspaper column,Bedtime Stories. Their partnership spanned five decades, beginning withBaby Possum Has a Scare(c. 1912),The Adventures of Reddy Fox(1913), andBuster Bear Invites Old Mr. Toad to Dine(c. 1914). The series continued into the 1950s withAt Paddy the Beaver\'s Pond(1950), followed by the reprintThe Animal World of Thornton Burgess(1962).

After his escalating success through the 1920s, Cady and his wife Melinna decided to take an extended vacation. Touring Europe for two months in 1931, they visited London, Paris, Avignon, Brussels, Arles, Amsterdam, Rome, and Venice. In a letter to Harrison\'s mother, Melinna detailed their adventures:

\"So far I like Paris as a place to live better than any other city.... The shops, the museums with the great works of art.... TheFollies!!! and on and on. Venice is filled with charm & great beauty & romance yet back of it all, I could imagine in time one might feel the past tragedy of the place. Every afternoon at 4, Harrison & I started in agondolaand just wandered in & out & around until 8 o\'clock. It, no doubt, sounds utterly foolish at my age to be so enthusiastic about everything, but, my dear, I am living in a state of thrills.\"

Cady was very prolific, illustrating over 70 years for such publications asSt. Nicholas Magazine,Boys\' Life,[4]The Saturday Evening Post,Ladies\' Home Journal,Good HousekeepingandCountry Gentleman. He illustrated theQueen Silver-Bellseries byFrances Hodgson Burnett.

In addition to his extensive illustrating of others\' books, Cady also authored several books with his own illustrations, including his Butternut Hill series (1929),Johnny Funny-Bunny\'s Picnic Party(1928) andSpring Moving Day(1928).

When he retired in 1948,Vincent Fagotook over thePeter Rabbitstrip.Avonpublished Cady\'sPeter Rabbit Comicsin 1947.

His work is on display at theThornton W. Burgess MuseuminSandwich, Massachusetts.
