**Charles M. Schulz (1922-2000)**

Charles Monroe Schulz was an American cartoonist who created Peanuts, one of the most successful American comic strips of the mid-20th century. Schulz was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on November 26, 1922. He loved to draw as a child and his first published cartoon was a drawing of his small black-and-white dog, Spike. Spike later became the model for Snoopy of “Peanuts”. Schulz studied cartooning in an art correspondence school after graduating in 1940 from high school. He served in the army from 1943 to 1945 and returned first as an instructor with the art school and then as a freelance cartoonist with the St. Paul Pioneer Press and the Saturday Evening Post (1948–49).
