Eugene McGillicuddy, who would become known to sports fans across the country by the pen name Gene Mack, was a 1908 graduate of Medford High who got his start engraving pots and pans for $3 a week. He began his 35-year Boston Globe career doing illustrations for the newspaper's advertising department.

Mack is most widely remembered today for his 1940s series of Major League ballpark illustrations that were printed in the Boston Globe and The Sporting News, and now reside in the collection of the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y
