RON MCGEARY is a professional cartoonist/caricaturist with 30 years of experience, and over that period his work has appeared in most British national newspapers and magazines. For ten years he was a regular contributor of topical/political cartoons for The Daily Telegraph's Peterborough Column, and also drew for both the Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph Op Ed pages. He was also the editorial cartoonist for
The Weekly Telegraph (the expat version of the main paper).
He started drawing at a very young age, but all examples of his early works have been lost to posterity because his parents needed to redecorate the walls. He is a man of many parts: he trained to be a stuntman, is an ex-policeman, studied martial arts, and learned to fly a private plane. He also plays Irish Uilleann pipes and speaks Hindi (but not at the same time!).
He looks forward to getting up in the morning because it gives him the rest of the day to himself.
