Olubunmi Oloruntoba

Bunmi (seen in the centre of picture), is our family artist. In this picture he is posing with the star artists of his film "The Elevator", shot at the graduate school for Master of Fine Arts, USA. He worked for The Guardian Newspapers for about a year (2000 - 20001 as an Editorial Cartoonist before going to the US. His cartoons at The Guardian were comments on contemporary Nigerian social, economic and political scenes. Because they

were very popular, The Guardian still publishes some of them as fillers. We show here a selection of the published ones in Reflections in Cartoons.

Bunmi also sends home, periodically, thoughtful and amusing letters dubbed "Letters from USA". His latest letter is #17. Click the link to read it. You'll also find some more of his past letters in the  Letters from USA Archive.
