Stanley
Albert Drake (November 9, 1921 – March 10, 1997)
was an American cartoonist
best known as the founding artist of the comic strip
The Heart of Juliet Jones. Born in Brooklyn,
Drake worked in the back of a Dugan's Donut truck for a dollar-a-day salary
while he was in high school. At the age of 17, he contributed art to Popular
Detective, Popular Sports and other pulps. Entering the comic book
field as artist, letterer and writer, he became friends with cartoonist Bob Lubbers,
who later suggested he draw newspaper comics. He studied for
two years at New York's Art Students League. In
the Pacific during World War II, he did PR work for Stars and Stripes. Returning to
civilian life, he went into advertising, eventually heading a studio of 12
illustrators. Drake was a passenger during the September 1956 automobile
accident that killed his fellow cartoonist Alex Raymond.
