Guy Berkeley ("Berke") Breathed (last name rhymes with "method") (born June 21, 1957) is an American cartoonist, children's book author/illustrator, director and screenwriter, best known for Bloom County, a 1980s cartoon-comic strip which dealt with socio-political issues, as seen through the eyes of highly exaggerated characters (e.g. Bill the Cat and Opus the Penguin) and humorous analogies.
Early life
Breathed was born on June 21, 1957, in Encino, California. He went to Westchester High School (now Westchester Academy for International Studies) in Houston, Texas, where, according to an Austin American-Statesman article, he was a cheerleader who went by the name of Guy. It was here that Breathed began drawing cartoons and he occasionally submitted them to a local newspaper. He went on to the University of Texas at Austin and became a photographer and writer for the campus newspaper The Daily Texan.
