(“D.C.”1865-1950) Primarily famed as cartoonist, who worked for the Cape Town based newspaper [[Die Burger]] from its foundation in 1915 to 1940. He created the satirical mining magnate Hoggenheimer and the symbolic baboon on a pole, called Kees. (???**) Also had a keen interest in theatre and theatre personalities, described as a “stage manager and capable actor among the gentlemen amateurs” and an “acute critic” by [[Jill Fletcher]] (1994), doing numerous cartoons and most significantly, keeping a enormously useful journal of his avid theatre going. The latter material was published as "''My Playgoing Days''" in [[SA Review]], 9 March and 24 August 1932. These writings form the core of the second half of [[F.C.L. Bosman]]'s second volume on theatre in South Africa (1981), dealing with the period between 1855 and 1912. A friend of many theatre personalities, including [[Luscombe Searelle]] and particularly [[Stephen Black]]. [TH]
