Details: About the Author and Other Contributors Albert Uderzo, born in 1927, became an assistant cartoonist for a Parisian publisher in 1941. In 1945, he first helped produce an animated film, and a year later he drew his first comic strips, became a scriptwriter, and soon also created self-contained cartoon series. During this time, he created, among others, "Belloy, Knight Without Armor" (for OK magazine) and "Crime Doesn't Pay" (for the newspaper France-Soir). Uderzo became an employee of a Belgian agency in Paris, where he met Jean-Michel Charlier and René Goscinny in 1951. With Charlier, Uderzo created "Belloy," "Tanguy," and "Laverdure," and with Goscinny, they initially produced "Pitt Pistol" and "The Incredible Corsair," followed by "Luc Junior" (for La Libre Belgique), "Benjamin and Benjamine" (for "Top Magazin"), and "Umpah-Pah" (for "Tintin"). In 1959, Uderzo and Goscinny founded their own magazine, called "Pilot." The crowning achievement was then "Asterix the Gaul." René Goscinny was born in Paris in 1926. He grew up in Buenos Aires, and after graduating from high school, he first worked as an assistant bookkeeper and later as a cartoonist in an advertising agency. In 1945, Goscinny emigrated to New York. In 1946, he had to return to France to complete his military service. Back in the USA, he worked again as a cartoonist, then as an art director for a children's book publisher. During a trip to France, Goscinny was hired by a Franco-Belgian press agency, which sent him to New York twice as a correspondent. He gave up drawing and started writing. He conceived many humorous articles, books, and scripts for comics. Among others, he wrote: "Le petit Nicolas" (with Sempe), "Lucky Luke" (for Morris), "Iznogoud" (with Tabary), "Umpah-Pah," and "Asterix" (with Uderzo). Goscinny was married and had one daughter. He died on November 5, 1977.
