Rice also studied art at Jack Watkin's Sydney Art School.[2] Rice worked freelance, selling cartoons to The Bulletin, Smith's Weekly, Rydges Business Journal and other Sydney publications. Rice also drew comic strips, including Powerman, Steele Carewe, Dr Darbill and Nick Carver of the Circus for Frank Johnson Publications.[2][3] At the beginning of the Second World War Rice joined an army camouflage unit; he later transferred to a survey unit and served in New Guinea. During this time he produced a comic book of wartime cartoons called Rice and Shine.[2] Following the war, in 1946, Rice joined the staff of Smith's Weekly as a cartoonist. When the paper ceased publication in October 1950 Rice returned to freelancing and also prepared promotional material for Universal Films.[2] In 1956 following the death of Alexander George Gurney he took over the comic strip, Bluey and Curley, but drew the strip for less than a year, as he died in a car accident[4] on New Year's Eve 1956.[5] References1. ^https://www.lambiek.net/artists/r/rice_norm.htm 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{Cite book|title=Bonzer: Australian Comics 1900s–1990s|last=Shiell|first=Annette|publisher=Eluga Media|place=Redhill, South Australia|year=1998|pages=124–125|isbn=1-876308-12-5}} 3. ^{{Cite book|title=Panel By Panel: an Illustrated History of Australian Comics|author=John Ryan|publisher=Cassell|year=1979|page=172|isbn=0-7269-7376-9}} 4. ^{{Cite book|title=Panel By Panel: an Illustrated History of Australian Comics|author=John Ryan|publisher=Cassell|year=1979|page=81|isbn=0-7269-7376-9}} 5. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article71774294 |title=Artist killed in Crash. |newspaper=The Argus |location=Melbourne, Victoria |date=2 January 1957 |accessdate=3 July 2013 |page=9 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} External links{{DEFAULTSORT:Rice, Norman}}{{cartoonist-stub}} 7 : 1913 births|1956 deaths|Australian comic strip cartoonists|Australian comics artists|Australian cartoonists|Road incident deaths in Australia|Accidental deaths in New South Wales |
