Pat Brady (cartoonist)

Pat Brady (born October 12, 1947 in Louisville, Kentucky) is an American cartoonist and creator of the comic strip "Rose is Rose", syndicated by United Feature Syndicate since 1983.

Brady started cartooning at the tender age of five, drawing cartoons during Roman Catholic mass. He was nicknamed "Pasquale" by the priest. [Miserandino, Dominick A. [http://thecelebritycafe.com/interviews/pat_brady.html Interview with Pat Brady.] thecelebritycafe.com. Accessed June 6, 2008.] Brady graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1969. He won the Reuben Award for Outstanding Cartoonist of the Year for 2004.

Prior to "Rose is Rose", Brady created a comic strip named "Dreamer", but it was rejected by every publisher which saw it. ["In 1982, prior to "Rose is Rose", I developed a comic strip I called "Dreamer". It was rejected by every syndicate that saw it, but in many ways its heart goes on in "Rose is Rose"." --Pat Brady, "Rose is Rose: 15th Anniversary Collection", p. 61.]

Brady was described by Pearls Before Swine cartoonist Stephan Pastis as "the nicest guy in cartooning".
