	Interesting Ideas: Rest easy, Ernie Bushmiller: Nancy Lives Again
		Though in many cases the original artist has run out of ideas long before the epigones take over, Ernie Bushmiller never lost his touch with Nancy; his 1982 death at 76 was artistically as untimely as it would have been 20 years earlier.
		It was the anchoring effect of Bushmiller's imagery, and the motion itself, that mattered.
		Rather than being embarrassed by Bushmiller, as their predecessor seemed to be, they have lovingly restored his spirit to the strip.

	HA \| Ernie Bushmiller's Mac the Manager (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		Most Bushmiller biographies detail his first job in journalism, when he was hired as a copyboy in 1919, at 14 years of age, at the New York World.

		Bushmiller, of course, won worldwide fame as the creator of Nancy, with Mac the Manager a forgotten footnote of his remarkable career.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Nancy
		(Bushmiller's later claim of having created Fritzi is absolutely false.) Bushmiller's bold, clear art style, combined with his ability to construct a type of gag that appealed to a very broad audience, brought the strip to new heights of popularity — and his introduction of Fritzi's niece, Nancy, in 1933, carried it higher yet.
		Toward the end of his life, Bushmiller relied more and more on his assistants, Al Plastino (best known for his work on Superman in the 1950s and '60s, and for ghosting Ferd'nand in the '70s and '80s) and Will Johnson.
		When he left in 1995 to concentrate on Baby Blues (which he does with Rick Kirkman), the new team, Guy and Brad Gilchrist, drew their inspiration straight from Bushmiller — even to the point of re-using many of the earlier cartoonist's gags.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Fritzi Ritz
		His replacement was 20-year-old Ernie Bushmiller, whose previous job at The World's art department had been to sweep its floors..
		Incidentally, Bushmiller's version of Fritzi was modeled after his fiance, Abby Bohnet, whom he married in 1930.
		But the most important of Bushmiller's new characters was Fritzi's 7-year-old niece, Nancy, who came to live with her in 1933.

		To me, Nancy was Ernie Bushmiller's and I didn't think that I could ever draw like that or write like that.
		They had shown a classic Ernie Bushmiller strip and one of yours and they were almost identical.
		I created style sheets of all the different Ernie expressions that he had on all the different characters and I really tried to make it as close to the original as I could.

	Nancy - Reviews on RateItAll (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		Ernie Bushmiller is turning over in his grave, I'm sure, to see how the Gilchrist brothers have inserted their love of Country Western music into a strip that has no place for it!
		Ernie was a very capable illustrator and stylist who pared his art to a bizarre minimalist regimen, never varying because he didn't have to.
		The style is certainly very faithful to Ernie's, and I am grateful to the hard-working artist for keeping Bushmiller's masterpiece alive.

	The Surreal Nancy Strips Just Keep On Coming (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		Ernie Bushmiller really pared his strip down to the bare minimum, the basic building blocks if you will, of the comic-strip language.
		Bushmiller's own "Nancy" strips were sort of dull, but after cutting the panels apart and arranging them into various combinations I've found that Nancy can be surprisingly hilarious.
		These halves are sometimes subdivided into two irregular panels, so a Bushmiller strip can consist of two "half panels," one "half" and two "smalls," or four "smalls." I decided to follow these formulae when rearranging panels into new Nancy strips.

	News from me - September 5, 2001
		One of the behind-the-camera gents was Ernie Bushmiller, who wrote for a number of comedians — most notably, Harold Lloyd — before settling down to this life's work.
		Bushmiller produced his strip until his death in 1982, although the last few years were a morass of recycled or reprinted gags, many of them redrawn by ghosts.
		Al Plastino drew it for two years imitating Bushmiller, then it was handed off to Mark Lasky and Jerry Scott and from them, to its present proprietors, Guy and Brad Gilchrist.

		His strip was originally called Fritzi Ritz, with the spotlight on Nancy's glamorous aunt.
		But Bushmiller wisely began concentrating on Nancy and eventually turned the cartoon into a classic kid strip.
