Burningham wrote and illustrated over 60 books for children which have been translated and distributed all over the world. Many illustration commissions followed, including iconic posters for London Transport, before the publication of his first book, Borka: The Adventures of a Goose with No Feathers (Jonathan Cape, 1963), which won the Kate Greenaway Medal for Illustration and heralded the beginning of an extraordinary career. He studied illustration and graphic design at the Central School of Art and graduated with distinction in 1959. John Burningham was born in Farnham, Surrey, in 1936.
