Shoemaker was an American editorial cartoonist. Born in Chicago, Illinois, he began his career in the art department of the Chicago Daily News in 1922 and served as its chief cartoonist from 1925 to 1952. He later worked for the New York Herald Tribune (mid-1950s to early 1960s), the Chicago American, and Chicago Today until retiring in 1972 after producing more than 14,000 cartoons. His work was widely syndicated. Shoemaker is best known for creating the character John Q. Public, the archetypal beleaguered American taxpayer/average citizen, which became a widely recognized symbol. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning twice: in 1938 for The Road Back (a World War I soldier marching back toward war) and in 1947 for Still Racing His Shadow (depicting wage demands racing against the cost of living). He also taught at the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts (where one student was Bill Mauldin) and later painted in oils after retirement.His cartoons are held in collections such as the Dallas Museum of Art and the Library of Congress.
