Bill Watterson (born July 5, 1958) is an American cartoonist best known for his syndicated comic strip "Calvin and Hobbes." Born in Washington, D.C., Watterson developed an interest in drawing at a young age. He attended Kenyon College but dropped out to pursue a career in cartooning. "Calvin and Hobbes" debuted in 1985 and became an instant success, running for 10 years until Watterson's retirement in 1995. The comic follows the adventures of a precocious six-year-old boy named Calvin and his stuffed tiger Hobbes. Watterson won numerous awards for his work, including the Reuben Award for Outstanding Cartoonist of the Year in 1986 and 1988. He also received the Inkpot Award from the San Diego Comic-Con in 1992. Watterson's strip is known for its wit, humor, and poignant exploration of childhood and imagination.
