Stan Hunt, 1929-2006

Stan Hunt, a longtime newspaper cartoonist who studied under Willard Mullin and specialized in golf cartoons, passed away Wednesday. He had most recently been a cartoonist and golf columnist for The Pilot in North Carolina.

Hunt was born in Williston Park, New York. He served in the Korean War with the 1st Infantry Division of the US Army, where he claimed to have played golf against eventual US Open winner Orville Moody. His newspapers included the New York World Telegram, the St. Petersburg Times, the Springfield Union and the Charlotte Observer. He also worked for a number of golf magazines.

Hunt is survived by a wife, an ex-wife, a son and three grandchildren.

This is not, to the best of my knowledge, the New Yorker cartoonist of the same name
