An artist and writer who took inspiration from the small town where he grew up, Elzie Crisler Segar continues to entertain audiences around the world with his most famous creation, the spinach-loving sailor Popeye.

Elzie was born in Chester, Illinois, on December 8, 1894, to Amzi Segar and his second wife, Erma Crisler Segar. The family lived in a home on Harrison Street, near Chester’s steep City Steps. His father made a living painting houses and hanging wallpaper, a business he was eager to have his youngest son join. But although he did help his father in his interior work, Elzie was already drawn toward other kinds of artistic expression. He worked locally as a photographer, a window dresser, and even a musician. On top of all of that, he worked at the local movie theater, Bill Schuchert’s Opera House.

Elzie’s time at the Opera House provided valuable inspiration for his later artistic pursuits. One of his fellow employees, Jessie Huffstetler, who played the piano music for the silent films on show, remembered Elzie, who accompanied her on the drums:
