American cartoonist, born in Santa Rosa, California.


Robert LeRoy Ripley was not a sideshow impresario in the traditional sense of the word; however, he was a man with a great passion for oddities.


"Believe It or Not," his cartoon series of factual oddities, was syndicated in newspapers, radio, published in book form and made into a TV series.


Ripley claimed Christmas as his birthday, but his biographer Bob Considine said that he was actually born in December 26, 1893. His carrer as a journalist dates from around 1909, when he was hired as a cartoonist for the San Francisco Bulletin.

Occultopedia is the genuine article, the original and the best internet index of the extraordinary and uncanny, shamelessly copied by many, but never equaled. Online since 1995 — at first in a free web space provider (Tripod.com), and in 1997 finally with its own domain name and hosting — Occultopedia still is the principal online resource for those looking for the unexplained, the curious and the unusual.
