  Little Lulu comes to Harvard
According to Lawrence Buell, the Powell M. Cabot Professor of American Literature, Lulu's feistiness and independence have a significance that transcends the world of cartoon characters of which she was part.
Buell, whose normal area of expertise encompasses Emerson, Thoreau, and other figures of 19th century American literature, is specially qualified to speak with authority on Little Lulu.
Buell said that growing up with a celebrity mom was "kind of fun," although at times it could be mildly embarrassing.

 Radcliffe Quarterly—Summer 2006
The papers of Marjorie Henderson Buell, Lulu’s creator, came to the library thanks to the generosity of her sons, Lawrence Buell, the Powell M. Cabot Professor of American Literature at Harvard, and Frederick Buell, a professor of English at Queens College, City University of New York.
At the age of eight, Buell was selling drawings to her friends, and in high school she worked out of her studio in a converted chicken coop and sold cartoons to the Philadelphia Ledger.
By 1950, Buell was presiding over a merchandising empire that included Little Lulu dolls, lunch boxes, magic slates, coin purses, bubble bath, pajamas, and candy, some of which are included in the collection.

 Little Lulu still frolics with pals at age 70 | The San Diego Union-Tribune
Created by a woman who maintained exceptional control over her character – a real rarity on both counts in the cartoon world – Little Lulu is now almost 70 years old, but still cavorting with her juvenile pals Tubby, Iggy, bratty Alvin, et al., and still seen in recycled ads hawking Kleenex tissues.
Created in 1935, a time when mischievous kids were a mainstay of cartoons, comics and movies, Little Lulu's first appearance was in a single panel by Marjorie Henderson Buell – who signed herself Marge – in the Feb. 23, 1935, issue of The Saturday Evening Post.
Marjorie Buell signed a contract with Western Publishing in 1944 for the production of a variety of Little Lulu coloring and other activity books, records, games, puzzles and sewing cards, all of which are highly collectible today.
