Curious George was created by Hans Reyersbach and Margarete Waldstein, who adopted the pen names Margret and H.A. Rey. When the married couple fled Paris in 1940 to escape the Nazi occupation, they took with them their manuscripts for a children’s book that featured an incredibly cute, curious monkey who often found misadventure because of that curiosity.
