Cathy Wilcox
Cathy Wilcox was born in Sydney and raised on tea, biscuits and afternoon TV. She studied at Sydney College of the Arts, lived in Paris for a spell, and developed a habit of drawing in small white spaces. In 1989 there was an opening for someone like that in the The Sydney Morning Herald, and later, the Age. She still draws for the Herald and The Sun-Herald, and has illustrated numerous children's books.
