About the Author
Born in Cape Town, Zapiro - aka Jonathan Shapiro - studied architecture at UCT before moving to the art campus, Michaelis. Following his two- year conscription in the army, he applied for and was awarded a Fulbright scholarship to study cartooning at the School of Visual Arts in New York for two years. The name Zapiro was derived from the nickname of a fellow pupil at Rondebosch Boy's High School, Martin Szapiro, whose friends called him Zap. After Martin's death, Zapiro adopted the name.
Reviews
"Zapiro makes a five-course meal of each and every cartoon-worthy moment, which we seem to have in abundance in SA." - Business Day "Zapiro's eye for the follies and foibles of us all, not only those of us in South Africa, is as sharp as ever." - Mercury
