Birth Place: Brooklyn, NYBiography:
William "Bill" Ward (American, 1919-1998) was a Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age cartoonist celebrated as one of the most widely published "good girl" artists, and as creator of the comic book ingénue, Torchy. Ward also worked on Blackhawk for Quality Comics, and later, using the pen name of Bill McCartney, he worked for Cracked magazine. His later work for numerous men's magazines such as Humorama, Leg Show, and others became more and more erotic, and eventually veered into outrageously outré territories
