STEPHEN STANLEY
Stephen was born in Liverpool UK many years ago, and was the sort of child who spent all his time drawing. He started to send cartoons off to newspapers when he was ten years old. When he was sixteen the family emigrated to Australia, finally settling in Whyalla after a brief stint in Adelaide. Stephen began a signwriting apprenticeship, but continued drawing in his spare time.

Invited to submit comic strips, Stephen quickly developed LAFFERTY, a comic based in the colonial days of early Australia. At the time, the editors of many leading newspapers seemed happy to consider local comics, and the period was a boom time for many cartoonists with many of the strips familiar today starting out in the mid 1970s.

Stephen drew a lot of gag cartoons for magazines such as READERS DIGEST, PLAYBOY, PENTHOUSE and the AUSTRALASIAN POST, but was also illustrating many books. Among them were:
PICTORIAL WHYALLA. A sketchbook history of Whyalla (1978)
2085 AUSTRALIA 100 YEARS IN THE FUTURE. Selected comics from his GEORGE THE ROBOT strip (1984)
JOGGERS DIE EARLY. (1985)
LOOKING BACK. A sketchbook history of Iron Knob. (1984)
GEOLOGY IS FUN (1989) and A GEOLOGIST STRIKES OUT (1994) Two volumes of the autobiography of Reg Sprigg.
ADVENTURES WITH CLIO. Written by Peter Donovan (1994)
Around 1990, Stephen decided to move to writing and illustrating books for kids and his first book PUZZLE PLANETS was published by SCHOLASTIC in 1993. He followed this with a whole series of books such as:
PUZZLE BODY (1994)
HOW TO DRAW ALIENS (1994)
PUZZLE WORLDS (1995)
PUZZLE KINGDOMS (1996)
PUZZLE ANIMALS (1997)
PUZZLE HEROES (1999)
HIDDEN PICTURE CHALLEGES for DOVER BOOKS NEW YORK (1999)
