Alex Graham was a Scottish cartoonist and the creator of the well-known basset hound 'Fred Basset'. Born Alexander Steel Graham in Patrick, Glasgow, he studied at Dumfries Academy and served in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders during World War II. After the war, he began selling cartoons to magazines like The New Yorker, Punch and Women's Journal. One of his 1953 cartoons for The New Yorker is presumably the origin of the catchphrase "Take me to your leader", that has been associated with extraterrestrials in films, comics and cartoons since.
