About the Author
Cavazzano was born in Venice, Italy. He started his career at the age of 14, as an assistant to Luciano Capitanio (his cousin) and an inker for Romano Scarpa. He produced stories about Disney characters Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Scrooge McDuck and others.

This style has had a big influence on many Disney illustrators of the new generation, especially the Italians. Recently, he drew the series 'Big Bazoon' for the Italian Playboy, and cooperated with the Spanish artist Sergio Aragonés on the gag series 'Oran et Outang'/'C'Est la Jungle' in Spirou. He also illustrated the epic Disney fantasy comic World of the Dragonlords, which was written by Byron Erickson. In Italy, he continued to draw Disney comics for Topolino. In 2006, he set up a new series for Disney Italia, 'Jungle Town'.He has received numerous awards for his work in comics. Apart from Disney, he has also been involved in drawing other, less known, comics and has done work in advertisement.
