Born in Cape Town in 1958. Couldn’t imagine a career in cartooning, so studied architecture at UCT. Couldn’t imagine a career in architecture, so tried switching to Graphic Design and promptly got conscripted. While in the army, became active in the UDF. Trouble. Began doing cartoons for progressive organisations and for South Africa.<BR><BR>
Had a ball in New York studying under (among others)
Art Spiegelman, Will Eisner and Harvey Kurtzman. Returned to South Africa in 1991 and with Story Circle
produced educational comics including Roxy, Tomorrow People and A Trolley Full of Rights. In 1994 became editorial cartoonist for the Mail and
Guardian and Sowetan, and in 1998 for the Sunday
Times. Was also published daily in Cape Argus
1996 – 1997.
