I started working with Timely in 1946. Stan Lee hired me.

What made me want to go into doing comics was I was working as a laborer with my father, a gardener.

This is what Tom Rogers was hired to do: make bold, timely moves.

After about twenty issues of Josie, they decided to pay me.

The first book that they gave me was Jeannie, a young teenager. I went on with her maybe ten books.

Then he took me off Jeannie and he gave me Millie the Model. That was a big break for me. It wasn't doing to well and somehow when I got on it became quite successful.
