Belsky won a cartoon competition for Punch in the 1930s.[1] It was at the Royal College of Art that she met her future husband, Czech exile and sculptor, Franta Belsky. Franta introduced her work to editors he knew at the magazine Lilliput, where Belsky became a regular contributor.[3] In 1944, Margaret and Franta married, with Belsky taking on her husband's name for her single word signature, disguising her gender.[3] Belsky started working for the Daily Herald in 1951 and became their first ever pocket cartoonist, at the same time becoming the first woman to draw a daily front-page cartoon.[1] Belsky was dismissive of her own work, calling herself "just a hack." She didn't collect her work, though it was estimated that she may have drawn more than 6,000 cartoons while working for the Daily Herald. When the Daily Herald, later The Sun, was taken over by Rupert Murdoch in 1969, Belsky refused to work for him. Instead she contributed cartoons for many other newspapers and magazines, including The Strand Magazine, Punch, The Guardian, John Bull and Sunday Graphic. She also became an illustrator for children's books, including designing the covers for various Penguin books.[1] Belsky died on 26 January 1989.[4] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Biography: Margaret Belsky|url=http://www.cartoons.ac.uk/artists/margaretbelsky/biography|publisher=The British Cartoon Archive|accessdate=4 February 2015}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Belsky}}2. ^{{cite web|last1=Bryant|first1=Mark|title=Belsky [née Owen], Margaret Constance (1919-1989), cartoonist and illustrator|url=http://oxfordindex.oup.com/view/10.1093/ref:odnb/57137|publisher=Oxford Dictionary of National Biography|doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/57137|date=September 2004}} 3. ^1 {{cite news|title=Margaret Belsky|url=http://find.galegroup.com/ttda/newspaperRetrieve.do?sgHitCountType=None&sort=DateAscend&tabID=T003&prodId=TTDA&resultListType=RESULT_LIST&searchId=R1&searchType=BasicSearchForm¤tPosition=2&qrySerId=Locale%28en%2C%2C%29%3AFQE%3D%28tx%2CNone%2C15%29Margaret+Belsky%24&retrieveFormat=MULTIPAGE_DOCUMENT&userGroupName=lancs&inPS=true&contentSet=LTO&&docId=&docLevel=FASCIMILE&workId=&relevancePageBatch=IF501758141&contentSet=TDA&callistoContentSet=TDA&docPage=article&hilite=y|accessdate=24 August 2016|work=The Times|date=2 February 1989}} 4. ^{{Cite book|title = Public Sculpture of Greater Manchester|last = Wyke|first = Terry|publisher = Liverpool University Press|year = 2005|isbn = 9780853235675|location = |pages = 437–438}} 6 : 1919 births|1989 deaths|Alumni of the Royal College of Art|British cartoonists|British illustrators|People from Wareham, Dorset |
