My mom was his housekeeper. I remember sitting on "Pop's" lap as he sketched in his drawing room.<br /><br />I have an autographed copy of his book, "A Hand in Sport", handed down from my parents to me. I treasure it and the little memory I have of him and living in his home.

I subscribed to the NY W-T just to keep up with his work.

And the Society of Illustrators recently did a great show of Mullin and Gallo. Bill told some very funny stories of working along side Mullin in those great days of New York City sports.<BR/><BR/>On the sad note is that Bill will not retire until someone comes along to take his place. He does not want the tradition of the daily sports cartoonist to go with him.<BR/><BR/>Terry Brown<BR/>Director, Society of Illustrators 1984-2008The Johnson Sistershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06857694802073769357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-69174133160281789782008-10-28T14:01:00.000-04:002008-10-28T14:01:00.000-04:00He knows how clothes adapt to the body's tensions....He knows how clothes adapt to the body's tensions.<BR/><BR/>Looking forward for the step-by-step thing, looking forward to any advice from such a great drawer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
