Harold Rudolf Foster (August 18, 1892 – July 25, 1982), aka Hal Foster, was a Canadian- American illustrator best known as the creator of the award- winning comic strip Prince Valiant, which influenced numerous artists and was adapted to film. Foster was 73 when he was elected to membership in Great Britain's Royal Society of Arts, an honor given to very few Americans.

William Randolph Hearst, who had long wanted Foster to do a comic strip for his newspapers, was so impressed with Foster's pitch for Prince Valiant that he promised Foster the ownership of the strip if he would start the series, a very rare offer in those days. The strip began February 13, 1937, continuing for decades. In 1954, Foster and his wife Helen were seen on television's This Is Your Life. In the late 1950s, the couple moved from Illinois to Redding Ridge, Connecticut. Later they moved to Winter Park, Florida. In 1967, Woody Gelman revived some of Foster's earlier work for his Nostalgia Press.

William Randolph Hearst (April 29, 1863 – August 14, 1951) was an American business magnate and a leading newspaper publisher. Hearst entered the publishing business in 1887, after taking control of The San Francisco Examiner from his father. Moving to New York City, he acquired The New York Journal and engaged in a bitter circulation war with Joseph Pulitzer's New York World which led to the creation of yellow journalism — sensationalized stories of dubious veracity. Acquiring more newspapers, Hearst created a chain that numbered nearly 30 papers in major American cities at its peak. He later expanded to magazines, creating the largest newspaper and magazine business in the world.

Citizen Kane is a 1941 American drama film, directed by and starring Orson Welles. It was released by RKO Pictures, and was Welles's first feature film. The film was nominated for Academy Awards in nine categories. Hearst was Furious over the shameless portrait of him in the Film and over the provocative greedy portrait of his wife as a lazy gold digger. The Film is widely considered the Best Movie ever made.

Prince Valiant in the Days of King Arthur, or simply Prince Valiant, is a long-run comic strip created by Hal Foster in It is an epic adventure that has told a continuous story during its entire history, and the full stretch of that story now totals more than 3700 Sunday strips. Currently, the strip appears weekly in more than 300 American newspapers, according to its distributor, King Features Syndicate.
