Hal Rasmusson (b. January 11, 1900–1961) was an American cartoonist best known for the comic strip Aggie Mack about a teenage girl.
Born in Crookston, Minnesota, Rasmusson grew up in Minneapolis, where he attended the Minneapolis School of Art for two years.[1] He started his career doing fashion illustration. Moving to Chicago, he freelanced for several years, eventually taking a job creating Gibson greeting cards in Cincinnati for five years. He married and moved to New York where he worked as an art director for five years. Returning to Minneapolis, he spent nine years as art director of greeting cards with the Buzza Company.[1]
He launched Aggie Mack with the Chicago Tribune Syndicate in 1946. He also drew the accompanying strip Honey Bun until 1953. He wrote and illustrated a how-to book on drawing, Modern Cartoon (Walter T. Foster, 1950). Aggie Mack ran until his death in 1961.[2]
