Born on June 8, 1957, in Windham, New York, Adams worked in corporate America — including as a bank teller (where he was robbed at gunpoint twice) and later as an engineer at Pacific Bell — before launching Dilbert in 1989. The strip brilliantly satirized the absurdities of office life, corporate bureaucracy, incompetent managers, and cubicle culture through the eyes of the hapless engineer Dilbert and his cynical dog Dogbert.
At its peak, Dilbert appeared in over 2,000 newspapers worldwide, was translated into multiple languages, spawned books, merchandise, an animated TV series, and even made Dilbert the first fictional character named one of Time magazine’s most influential Americans in 1997. Adams won the prestigious Reuben Award from the National Cartoonists Society that same year.
