Gerry Gersten (born 1927, New York City)〔(Gerry Gersten - Keywords and quick facts for Gerry Gersten ) AskART (Retrieved 5 March 2011.)〕 was a prolific, and renowned political caricaturist. He grew up in the Bronx, born to Polish Jewish immigrant parents who didn't believe in his calling. “I remember once picking up a copy of Life magazine and saying to them, ‘A page in this magazine would cost an advertiser $50,000, of course you can make a living in this field,’” he recalls. “But I couldn’t convince them. They wanted me to be an accountant.”〔(Two Holocaust books you can judge by their covers ) Larry Domnitch, 11 August 2010.
