Thomas (1853-1931) was a political cartoonist who worked primarily for the "New York World", "New York Sun", and "Commercial Advertiser". He also had four books of cartoons published of which two were devoted to Washington, D.C. Around 1916 Thomas started an art syndicate in Newark, New Jersey. Homer's oldest brother, Thomas, Jr., was also a cartoonist; he was a cartoonist on the "Newark Evening News" when he died of heart disease in 1918. Homer attended the Phoenix Art Institute and the Grand Central School of Art in New York. In 1920 he married Alice Waterfield. Around 1925 their first and only child, Robert, was born.
