Harry G. Peter● Active

Harry G. Peter was born on March 8, 1880, in the United States, and passed away on January 2, 1958. He is best remembered as the co-creator of Wonder Woman, the iconic Amazonian superheroine who debuted in 1941. Before entering comics, Peter worked as a newspaper illustrator and cartoonist, including a stint with Bud Fisher at the *San Francisco Chronicle*. His path into the fledgling comic book industry led him to collaborate with writer William Moulton Marston, bringing Marston’s vision of a powerful, compassionate female hero to life with a distinctive, clean-lined art style. Peter’s artwork defined Wonder Woman’s early adventures, appearing in *Sensation Comics* and the character’s own title, where he handled pencils and inks. Over his career, he was credited on 19 issues across series such as *Famous Funnies* and *All Favourites Comic*, with work spanning from 1941 into the 2020s in reprint collections. Later in life, Peter continued to illustrate Wonder Woman until his health declined. His legacy endures as a foundational artist of one of comics’ most enduring characters, and his contributions have been honored posthumously through the character’s continued prominence in popular culture.
