Description
Arthur William Nugent, better known as Art Nugent, was an American cartoonist notable for his long-running syndicated puzzle feature, Funland, which he drew for four decades. He sometimes used the signature A. W. Nugent, and he was known as the World's Leading Puzzlemaker.
Born in Wallingford, Connecticut, he began as an acrobat. From 1911 to 1918, he was the National AAU Tumbling Champion. In 1916, he made the Olympic team, but the event was canceled, so he did not make the trip. [More at Wikipedia]
