Born March 26, 1909, a child of the Territory of Arizona who grew up with the state, Hal Empie held the dual distinction of being both the oldest continuous resident artist in Arizona's history and its youngest licensed pharmacist. His paintings, cartoons, drawings and sketches have appeared in many publications, nationally juried and invitational exhibitions, as well as the permanent collections of collectors, museums and cultural institutions throughout the country. He was also the creator behind the Empie Kartoon Kards and Porqupine Aiggs, artistic novelties.
