Artist Bio: Jay N. �Ding� Darling was a leading political cartoonist in the 1900s and an important figure in the early conservation movement. He won the Pulitzer Prize twice (1924 and 1943) and reached America through more than 100 of the nation's leading newspapers while he was employed at The Des Moines Register and Sioux City Journal. His cartoons covered important events in the 20th century, including the Great Depression, prohibition and the labor movement. Throughout his life Darling was also a supporter of the conservation efforts that led to the creation of the national wildlife refuge system and other local and nationwide conservation projects and regulations. In addition, he was known to be close friends with Walt Disney.
