Bio
- Doug Sneyd
- Doug has been a cartoonist for Playboy magazine since 1964. For nearly 20 years, starting in the mid-60's, his "Doug Sneyd" and "Scoops" news cartoons appeared daily in newspapers across North America. Sneyd's talent has also led him into cinema: in 1993, he wrote, produced and directed "Black-eyed Susan," an educational movie-drama about spousal abuse, for the Ontario government. He was a founding member of the Canadian Society of Book Illustrators and has been a member of the National Cartoonists' Society and the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists. Thirty of his full-page color Playboy cartoons are among the 235 Sneyd works included in the National Archives of Canada in Ottawa. Sneyd was born in Guelph, Ontario, Canada, but spent much of his professional career in Toronto. In 1969 he moved his family north to Orillia made famous as the mythical "Mariposa" by humorist Stephen Leacock. He works on the third floor of his home-studio overlooking beautiful Lake Couchiching and spends his winters on the Gulf Coast in Orange Beach, Alabama.

However, two lady pirates who did make a name for themselves on the high seas were Anne Bonny and Mary Read. Anne Bonny was born Anne Cormac in Cork, Ireland around 1697 to a lawyer father and his servant. When the affair was found out he left with Anne and the servant and fled to South Carolina. Even though her father became a wealthy plantation owner, Anne had a fiery temper and a taste for adventure and married a pirate called James Bonny. For more details visit us at Fancy Dress.
