# "Who's Who in Judge" - Clive Weed Profile This page introduces **Clive Weed**, Judge magazine's official cartoonist since 1921. The photograph shows him examining artwork at his desk, illustrating his professional practice. The text establishes Weed's credentials: born in Kent, Orleans County, New York (1884), he studied under Thomas P. Anschutz and lived briefly in Paris. His cartooning work appeared in major publications including the Philadelphia Record, New York Evening Sun, New York Tribune, and Leslie's Weekly before joining Judge. The piece celebrates Weed as "Cartoonist Extraordinary," crediting him with weekly satirical cartoons mocking "the pretensions of the pompous and the self-righteous"—Judge's editorial mission.

WHO’S WHO IN JUDGE CLIVE WEED LLOW us to present, dear readers, the Cartoonist Extraordinary and Satirist Plenipotentiary to the Court of JupGE, in other words the author of those striking cartoons that every week in this organ of light mock the pretensions of the pompous and the self- righteous. Clive says he was born in Kent, Orleans Co., New York, in 1884 and we’ve always believed him. But as a young lad he t moved to Philadelphia taking his family with him. There he attended the high school and the Pennsylyania Academy of Fine Arts, studied under Thomas P. Anschutz and finally took ship for Paris, just like a regular artist. At Paris he lived for a year on $50, which establishes his genius. Here are some of the publications he adorned with his brush strokes before joining the Jupce family: The Philadelphia Record, 1910; the Philadelphia Press, 1911-12; the New York Evening Sun, 1913; the New York Tribune, 1913-15; the Philadelphia Public Ledger, 1915-18; the New Republic, 1918; Leslie’s Weekly, 1921-22. He has been official cartoonist for JUDGE since 1921, with the exception of a year he spent abroad recently, and if you will study his picture you will see that he really has a kind face.
