At the suggestion of a book editor, Norman Bridwell (1928–2014), an Indiana native and 1955 Cooper Union School of Art graduate, wrote a story around a drawing he’d made of a baby with a bloodhound. The commercial illustrator had been trying to break into children’s book publishing without success, but in 1962 he took the editor’s advice and exaggerated the dog’s size, spinning a tale about a dog who unexpectedly grows so large, he towers over the houses dotting his family’s neighborhood. Bridwell considered naming the character “Tiny,” but his wife convinced him that “Clifford,” the name of her imaginary friend from childhood, would be a better, more interesting choice.
