American cartoonist Robert Crumb (born 1943 in Philadelphia) is widely considered to be the "father of underground comics." His work has a distinctive style and satirical tone and often features strongly stereotyped portrayals of minorities and overly sexualized women. He is best known for creating the cartoon characters Fritz the Cat, Mr. Natural and Devil Girl.
Crumb has illustrated many album covers, including most prominently Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & the Holding Company and the compilation album The Music Never Stopped: Roots of the Grateful Dead.
