Yesterday was the birthday of American cartoonist Charles Monroe Schulz, that beloved "Peanuts" creator who would have turned 91 years old if he were still alive today.
Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Schulz is remembered most fondly for the wholesome characters he created throughout his 50-year-long illustration career. Among them are the eternally hesitant Charlie Brown and the mischievous Snoopy, two characters who came to represent the iconic four-panel gag strip known as "Peanuts." Schulz devoted much of his life to the American comic standard, which ran up until the day after his death in 2000.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
