As a member of Asylum, a group of young illustrators and scenarists, Édith Grattery collaborated on several works by artists like Cromwell and Riff Reb's. In 1988, she created 'Ornicar' with scenarist Gonord in the collection X of publisher Futuropolis. From that same year, she was present in the magazine Circus. Two years later she started her most famous series, 'Basil et Victoria' with Yann. This series also led to a television adaptation, this time under the name 'Orson et Olivia'.
