French satirical cartoonist Georges Wolinski was born in Tunisia in 1934. His family moved to France in 1946, where he attended grammar and high school. He studied Architecture in Paris from 1952, but didn't finish his studies. By 1960, he started contributing cartoons, illustrations and a series of comic strips to the satirical monthly Hara-Kiri. These comic strips were based on political or erotic themes: 'Ils Ne Pensent Qu' à Ça' ('They Only Think of One Thing'), 'Histoires Inventées' ('Invented Stories') and 'Hit-Parades'. Wolinski's sharp cartoons soon also found their way to publications like Action and France-Soir.
