Andy DonatoAndy Donato (1937 - ) is an editorial cartoonist for the Toronto Sun newspaper chain. He was born in Scarborough, Ontario. He graduated from Danforth Technical School in 1955 and worked at Eaton's as a layout artist. He joined the Toronto Telegram in 1961, working as a graphic artist in the promotion department. In 1968, he was appointed art director and began cartooning on a part-time basis. After the demise of the Telegram, he joined The Toronto Sun and in 1974, started cartooning on a full-time basis. From 1985-86 he served as president of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists. He is well known among Sun readers for his signature image of a bird, "Donato's bird." Finding the bird, lost in the newspaper, has been a common device in Sun promotions over the years. Quotes "A cartoonist is a like a blind javelin thrower at the Olympics. He's not too accurate, but he sure gets the attention of the spectators." External links Donato, Andy Donato, Andy Donato, Andy
