This book chronicles the life and work of Charles Dunn (1894-1978) through his lifelong career as a cartoonist and fine artist during Washington's Golden Age. With an artist’s unique perspective, Dunn observed and recorded Washington’s transformation from a sleepy town into the cosmopolitan city we know today.
The only biography of Dunn, this book is also a valuable contribution to the history of our nation’s capital and our understanding of the twentieth century art scene in DC. Dunn’s illustrations, caricatures, cartoons and fine art offer a unique window into the heart and soul of the city he loved and will be enjoyed by all who share his affection for Washington, DC.
