Jules Feiffer (born January 26, 1929 in New York) is a renowned illustrator, cartoonist, screenwriter, and American author. His career began in the 1940s as an assistant to Will Eisner on the comic series The Spirit, where he developed his narrative and graphic skills. However, Feiffer gained international fame with his satirical comic strip Feiffer, first published in The Village Voice in 1956. With an expressive and minimalist graphic style, his strips addressed political, social, and psychological issues with sharp humor and biting criticism.

In 1986, he won the prestigious Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning, consolidating his influence in the realm of political and literary comics. He has also ventured into film and theater, writing scripts like Carnal Knowledge (1971), directed by Mike Nichols, and several plays.

Additionally, Feiffer has been an author and illustrator of children's books, highlighting titles such as The Man in the Ceiling and Bark, George. His unique style and ability to combine text and drawing with emotional depth have made him a key figure in adult comics and American literary illustration.
