Oliver Herford was een Brits-Amerikaanse kunstenaar, illustrator en schrijver, die "De Amerikaanse Oscar Wilde" werd genoemd. Hij werd beroemd om zijn geestige en satirische werken, waarin hij menselijk gedrag vaak vergeleek met dat van dieren. Zijn teksten en illustraties kenmerken zich door scherpe observatie en subtiele humor, waarmee hij de absurditeiten van het dagelijks leven blootlegde. Herfords unieke gave om de essentie van de menselijke natuur te vangen in humoristische anekdotes en verzen, maakt hem tot een tijdloze figuur in het literaire landschap.
