Naren Ray
Naren Ray (1940〔Sandesh (Bengali children's magazine), author Debasish Sen Sarodiya(September–October)2003 issue〕 – 24 July 2003) better known as Sufi, was a Bengali cartoonist with a career spanning nearly five decades, during which time he published political as well as children's cartoons in prominent Bengali magazines and newspapers. His role as a political cartoonist earned him more ire than dividends, while his work as a strip cartoonist was unique.〔TTIS, ''The Daily Telegraph'', "Toon magic part 83" by Debasish Deb on 28 April 2008〕 His cartoons were followed by generations of Bengali middle-class people without ever knowing his true identity. He was a regular contributor to Shankar's weekly, published by political cartoonist K. Shankar Pillai. Even though his works appeared exclusively in Bengali-language print media, his work had uniquely close ties to the leftist movement, rendering his drawings and ideas peerless.〔''Sharadiya'' Sandesh, 2010, "Cartoonist Sufi" by Biswadeb Gangopadhyay〕 ==Early life and education== Sufi was born in the district of Comilla, Bangladesh in 1940. His father worked in the police department and after independence relocated his family to Kolkata in 1948. Then a child, Sufi was taken out of school in Brahmanberia, where he was in class four. He initially thought that they were going for a family trip and would soon return to what was then East Pakistan. The idea of never being able to go back to his childhood abode deeply distressed him. He later stated that he had never recovered from that jolt. The family shifted to Shibpur, Howrah in the Indian state of West Bengal. Sufi attended Dinabandhu Institution in class five.〔Interview at ''Suprabhat'' on DD Bangla, 11 April 2003〕 Formal studies were never very appealing to him and he taught himself, mainly by voracious reading.〔 The eldest of five siblings, he had to start working before graduating. While he offered private tuition to sponsor his reading habits and was also member of local libraries, he mostly borrowed books from acquaintances, finishing three a day. He had left school in 1956 owing to financial problems at age of 16.〔Sandesh (Bengali children's magazine), author Debasish Sen Sarodiya September–October)2003 issue〕 Sufi joined an art school in 1958 to pursue drawing and handicrafts. Personal and family problems led him to abandon the course before its completion in 1962, but he had decided to be a cartoonist.〔
