He began his cartoon career while a teenager, working for $50 a week as the assistant of cartoonist E. C. Segar on his Thimble Theatre and Sappo comic strips. Following Segar's death in 1938, Sagendorf moved to New York and began illustrating marketing materials for King Features, while also developing Popeye toys and games.
From 1948 to 1967, Sagendorf was the writer-artist of Dell's, Gold Key's, and King Comic's Popeye comic book. In 1959, he finally assumed command of the Thimble Theatre comic strip.
In 1964, he explained his working methods:
A year after those remarks, he talked on television about Popeye when he appeared on What's My Line? (December 5, 1965).
He continued the strip until 1986. Wanting to spend more time with his family and confronted with failing eyesight, Sagendorf reduced his output to Sunday strips while Bobby London continued with the Popeye dailies. Sagendorf wrote and drew the Popeye Sunday strips until his death. King Features continues to run reprints of Sagendorf's daily strips, while artist Hy Eisman writes and draws new Sunday strips.
