George Joseph Herriman (August 22 1880 – April 25 1944) was an American cartoonist best known for the comic strip Krazy Kat (1913–1944). More influential than popular Krazy Kat had an appreciative audience among people in the arts. Gilbert Seldes’ article The Krazy Kat Who Walks by Himself was the earliest example of a critic from the high arts giving serious attention to a comic strip. The Comics Journal placed the strip first on its list of the greatest comics of the 20th century.
