While Hoff was still in high

assembly that "Kid, someday you''ll be a great cartoonist!" At 16,
he enrolled at the National Academy of Design in New York City. At

depicting tenements and lower-middle class life in the
city.
Hoff drew two long-running

walrus-mustached man, eventually appeared as the father in his
daily Tuffy, done for the King Features Syndicate from 1940
to 1950.
His cartoons have appeared in a
variety of publications including, the New Yorker,
Esquire, Look magazine. He was also the host of a
television show, Tales of Hoff, in which he drew and told
stories.
