Illustrator Puts a Face on the Unborn.
Editor's note. This first appeared in the National Catholic Register and is reprinted with the author's permission.
SCRANTON, Pa. - - Illustrator Gary Cangemi is not a cartoon, but he felt like one when he conceived his pro-life comic character Umbert the Unborn.
"The proverbial cartoon light bulb went off above my head," said Cangemi. Little did he expect the cartoon would draw the nationwide attention that it has. Cangemi hopes that the comic strip's success will translate into success for the pro-life movement.
Cangemi created the comic strip in the spring of 2001. He had been working as a freelance graphic artist for 20 years, but he was dissatisfied with his work.
"I hadn't really produced anything that I could look back and be proud of," said Cangemi.
Cangemi's mother had recently died from cancer and he was seeking a new direction for his career.
"I felt my mother urging me to pray for God's guidance," recalled Cangemi. "So I prayed, `God, please give me a direction to go with my career.'"
