==Life==
Haynie was born in [[Reedville, Virginia]]. He studied at the [[College of William and Mary]] in [[Virginia]] and at the [[University of Louisville]] in [[Kentucky]]. He also served in the [[United States Coast Guard]] during the end of [[World War II]] and the [[Korean War]].
In 1958, [[Barry Bingham, Sr.]], hired Haynie to serve as a political cartoonist for the ''[[Louisville Courier-Journal]]'', a position he held until his retirement in 1996, after which he was retained as an ''emeritus''. His cartooning style was clean lined, heavily inked, and somewhat reminiscent of [[Al Capp]]. Haynie regularly penned his wife's name, Lois, into his drawings.
Haynie won several awards for his work. He won the [[Headliner Award]] in 1966, the [[Freedoms Foundation Medal]] in 1966 and 1970 and the [[Sigma Delta Chi]] award in 1972. The [[American Civil Liberties Union|Kentucky Civil Liberties Union]] named him [[Civil libertarian|Civil Libertarian]] of the Year in 1978, and he was inducted into the Kentucky Journalism Hall of Fame in 1987.
