General info :
Charles Branum Barsotti (born September 28, 1933 in San Marcos, Texas, US – died June 16, 2014 in Kansas City, Missouri, US (aged 80)) was an American cartoonist who contributed gag cartoons to major magazines.

Barsotti grew up in San Antonio and graduated from Texas State University in 1955.
He then served in the Army and worked at the Brown School in San Marcos which was a residential treatment center for people with special needs, whilst studying with the aim of obtaining a master's degree in education.

Barsotti was the cartoon editor of The Saturday Evening Post and a staff cartoonist at The New Yorker beginning in 1970. His work also appeared in Playboy, Punch and Fast Company, among other publications. He was a signature artist whose rounded, elegant, sparsely detailed style evoked both the traditional world of a James Thurber and the contemporary sensibility of a Roz Chast.

Barsotti's work features a simple repertory including a nameless, lovable pooch and a monarch whose kingdom consists of a guard and a telephone.
