Tom Glover (cartoonist)
Thomas Ellis Glover (1891–1938) was a cartoonist, caricaturist, court reporter and journalist, working in New Zealand and Australia.
Glover was born in England but moved to New Zealand as a child.[1] His career is generally considered to have started when, while working as an 'elevator boy' he drew and exhibited caricatures of his passengers.[2] In New Zealand, he cartooned for the Truth (1911–1922) while also contributing to the Free Lance (1918–1922) under the name T Ellis.[3][4]
Glover began working for the Sydney Bulletin in 1922 before moving to the Sydney Sun in the 1930s.
Glover 'died suddenly at his desk' at the Sun in 1938.[1]
