Born in Brooklyn and educated in New York City (he received a Bachelor of Sciences degree from Fordham University), Warren King began his career as a freelance artist in 1940. Though King was responsible for several paperback and pulp magazine covers, he was best-known for his work as the Chief Editorial Cartoonist for The New York Daily News. King began his work for the New York Daily News in 1955 and would stay with them for the next twenty years.
