George Fisher began life in Searcy, Arkansas, and grew up at Beebe. He earned two Bronze Stars while serving in the European Theater of Operations during World War II and returned to Beebe with a young English wife, Rosemary Beryl Snook, whose nickname, “Snooky,” appeared hidden in all his cartoons published after 1976. In 1946 Fisher became staff cartoonist for the West Memphis News. Three years later he moved to Little Rock and eventually established Fisher Art Service, a commercial graphics firm. In the early 1960s he arranged to do one cartoon a week for the North Little Rock Times. The Arkansas Gazette picked up the cartoons and in 1972 contracted for two cartoons each week. He was the Gazette’s chief editorial cartoonist from 1976 until the paper’s demise in 1991.
