Author Biography:

Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946) was an English author now best known for his science-fiction novels, which include "The Time Machine", "The First Men in the Moon" and "The Invisible Man". GEOFFREY BIGGS was born in London, England, but went through high school in America, and studied at the Grand Central School of Art. Among his teachers were Arthur Woeffle, Arshile Gorky, and Harvey Dunn. Biggs's highly detailed and realistic work was first published in Collier's, where it attracted wide attention, and was soon followed by commissions from most other periodicals, including The Saturday Evening Post, True, Liberty, Woman's Home Companion, Coronet, Pic, and Good Housekeeping, as well as from many major and minor advertising agencies in New York. In addition, Biggs found time to exhibit at the Society of Illustrators and at the Midtown Galleries in New York. NORMAN NODEL (Nochem Yeshaya) was a noted artist and illustrator of children's books and magazines. Nodel began his illustrious career as a field artist in the army, drawing military maps during World War II. After the war, he pursued a successful career as an artist in a variety of styles, notably illustrating a great many issues in the famous 'Classics Illustrated' series in the 1950s. In the 1940s, he had previously been an assistant to George Marcoux, and he has done comic book art for True Comics and Sun Publications. His contributions to 'Classics Illustrated' varied from 'Ivanhoe' to 'Faust' and 'The Invisible Man'. He was also a regular on Charlton's teen, horror and romance titles of the 1960s and 1970s. In the 1960s he contributed to the Warren magazines Eerie and Creepy, using the pen name Donald Norman. During the last twelve years of his life, Mr. Norman Nodel devoted a major amount of his time and energy to illustrating books and magazines specifically for Jewish children, which gave him great pleasure and satisfaction. Norman Nodel worked to the last day of his life. He died on the 25th of February, 2000. NORMAN NODEL (Nochem Yeshaya) was a noted artist and illustrator of children's books and magazines.
