American Topical Association: Dr Seuss Goes to War & Before

Join the American Topical Association and Gregg Philipson as he explores Dr. Seuss in his early years as a cartoonist working for Life and Judge magazines, Esso Oil and others. It concludes in 1948 shortly after his service as a Major in the U.S. Army during WWII. It is a fascinating look at a side of Dr. Seuss that is seldom seen.

Gregg Philipson is one of the foremost collectors of World War II related and Jewish historical artifacts in the country. An authority on the Holocaust, Jewish military history and Jewish figures in U.S. wars, he will introduce us to the involvement of artist Theodore Geisel in the war effort. Gregg travels widely, giving programs for schools and other groups.
