Garland started his career as a director at the Royal Court Theatre. He met Peter Cooke through his theatrical connections and began to draw for Private Eye. At Private Eye he devised a strip cartoon – Barry McKenzie - together with Barry Humphries. The strip followed the trials of an Australian in London with Humphries providing the script and Garland the drawings. Garland joined the Daily Telegraph in 1966, becoming the paper’s first political cartoonist. He left to help design the newly founded Independent in 1986 but returned to the Daily Telegraph in 1990.
