	James Montgomery Flagg
		By the beginning of the 20th century Flagg was one of America's leading illustrators.

		James Montgomery Flagg first painted his famous Uncle Sam for a 4th of July 1916 issue of Leslie's magazine.

		James Montgomery Flagg was born in Pelham Manor, New York to businessman Elisha Flagg and socialite Anna Elida Coburn.
		Flagg became interested in art at a very young age, claiming that he started drawing at the age of two, but “not very well.” (82) By age eight he was fashioning his own brushes from his hair and a stick.
		Flagg chose to see war as an exciting adventure and Flagg biographer Susan E. Meyer comments that “he was convinced that men went to war for excitement, not for noble ideals.” (87) Flagg, enflamed with the passion of war but too old for combat, vigorously answered his country’s call to duty through his art.
