- Francisco Flores Trinidad, Jr. (26 May 1939 – 13 February 2009), better known by his pen name "Corky", was a Philippine-born American editorial cartoonist and comics artist. Born in Manila, Philippines, he was best known for his editorial cartoons for the Honolulu Star-Bulletin since 1969, and for his comic strips Nguyen Charlie, Aloha Eden, and Zeus. In 2005 the Society of Professional Journalists honoured Trinidad by naming him to the Hawaii Journalism Hall of Fame. A biographical sketch issued by the SPJ's Hawaii chapter recounts that prior to emigrating to Hawaii, Trinidad had "considered joining the Communist Huks fighting in the Philippines, but he remembered that the pen is mightier than the sword. " Over the years, in his cartoons, Trinidad was a sharp critic of Hawaii politicians and of Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos. A collection of cartoons by Trinidad chronicling the history of Marcos from his declaration of martial law through his exile to Hawaii has been published as Marcos: The Rise and Fall of a Regime (Arthouse Books, 1986; ISBN 0-935021-08-6). Trinidad was the first Asian editorial cartoonist to be syndicated in the United States and to date still the only Asian American editorial cartoonist at a major U.S. metropolitan newspaper. Via syndication, Trinidad's work has appeared in non-U.S. periodicals such as the International Herald Tribune, Denmark's Politiken daily, the Buenos Aires Herald, the Manila Chronicle, and the now-defunct British magazine Punch. In 1982 Trinidad received the Allan Saunders Award from the American Civil Liberties Union of Hawaiʻi and in 1999 the Fletcher Knebel Award from the Hawaii Community Media Council. Over the years he has also won several honors in the editorial cartoon category of the Hawaiʻi Publishers Association's annual Paʻi Awards for excellence in journalism. Trinidad died aged 69, on February 13, 2009 of pancreatic cancer in Hawaii.
