Warsager joined the WPA Graphics division in 1935 and became one of the earliest artists to use the screenprint as a fine art medium. Like many artists of the time, Warsager was active in social and political causes, seeking an end to racism and injustice. Warsager's experiments in printmaking continued throughout his career.
