Mark Cornwall - cartoonist

Mark Cornwall has worked as a cartoonist since a brain snap caused him to quit his then day job at the Australian Tax Office Schemes Unit in 1982. From the mid 80s to 2001, Cornwall worked as a cartoonist for the late Bulletin magazine, the Australian Financial Review, The Australian, The Sydney Morning Herald and for Crikey from 2001 to 2008. Cornwall is also a teacher of English to migrants and overseas students owing to the perilous career insecurity of Oz cartooning.
