Ralph Steadman has been drawing and illustrating for nearly 70 years. He began creating cartoons for UK newspapers, but arguably, his big break came in 1970 when he went to the USA for the first time to cover the Kentucky Derby with Hunter S. Thompson. They would continue to collaborate until Hunter’s death in 2005, their most famous project being Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1972). During his career, Ralph Steadman has written and illustrated books, designed theatre sets and worked with global brands such as Sony, Nike, Supreme and the hit TV show, Breaking Bad.
