Clint C. Wilson, Sr. the longtime editorial cartoonist at the Los Angeles Sentinel, passed away on Sunday in Hawthorne, California. He was 90.

Wilson was one of the traditional black press' most esteemed cartoonists, working in very strong, blunt style marked by a certain elegance in the way figures were depicted. He began his career as a sports cartoonist in San Antonio, and held that position at the Sentinel before becoming their editorial cartoonist. He was inducted into the Black Press Hall of Fame in 1990, and retired in 2002.
