Thomas Ellis Glover (1891–1938) was a prolific cartoonist and caricaturist who worked in New Zealand and Australia. He began his professional career in 1911 as a cartoonist and court-reporter for the Wellington-based New Zealand Truth. After serving in France during World War I, Glover returned to Wellington and established himself as a respected and popular illustrator and cartoonist for The Free Lance and Truth newspapers, his work often dealing with political themes. In late 1922 Glover left New Zealand and settled in Melbourne, having accepted a job as cartoonist for the Sydney-based Bulletin magazine. In Australia he became widely-known for his political cartoons and insightful caricatures. In early 1928 Glover took up a position as the feature cartoonist for The Sun newspaper in Sydney. He died suddenly at his desk in September 1938, aged 47.
