Harold Tucker Webster (September 21, 1885 – September 22, 1952) was an American cartoonist known for The Timid Soul, Bridge, Life's Darkest Moments and others in his syndicated series which ran from the 1920s into the 1950s.
Because he disliked his given name, his readers knew him as H.
T.
Webster, and his signature was simply Webster.
His friends, however, called him Webby.
Because of the humor and human interest in his cartoons, he was sometimes compared to Mark Twain, and his art style was quite similar to the work of Clare Briggs.
During his lifetime, Webster drew more than 16,000 single-panel cartoons.
