Fay Barbara King (March 1889 – presumed dead [after 1954])[2] was an American illustrator, journalist, and cartoonist. Some of her work represents an early example of autobiographical comics.
King worked for newspapers and magazines in the early twentieth century (at least from 1912 to 1937), moving to New York City in 1918. She was one of the popular Jazz Age cartoonists appearing in the 1924 comedy The Great White Way.
