John Tinney McCutcheon (1870-1949) was a newspaper cartoonist and war correspondent. Born in Lafayette, Indiana, McCutcheon graduated from Purdue University in 1889. After graduation, McCutcheon got a job as a cartoonist for the Chicago Morning News (later the News-Record; Chicago Record; Record-Herald). McCutcheon published political cartoons and was a correspondent covering the Spanish-American War and the South African (Boer) War. He illustrated the stories of his close friend, humorist George Ade, and wrote and illustrated stories of his frequent travels. In 1903, McCutcheon joined the Chicago Tribune, where he stayed until his retirement. He traveled to Asia and Africa, and covered World War I for the Tribune. His most famous cartoon, however, was "Injun Summer," first printed in the Chicago Tribune in 1907 and annually for years afterwards. McCutcheon was awarded the Dewey Medal by Congress and the Pulitzer Prize for cartoons in 1931. His cartoons appeared in John McCutcheon's Book (1948) by Franklin J. Meine and John Merryweather. He died in June, 1949. His autobiography, Drawn from Memory, was published in 1950.
