Lovell, Tom

Tom Lovell was already a successful illustrator for the New York slicks and pulps–Maxwell Grant’s The Shadow springs immediately to mind–when World War II rolled around. Lovell lived in New Rochelle, New York, and Westport, Connecticut, not far from Norman Rockwell, Mead Schaeffer, Harold Von Schmidt, and other artists who made their homes a train ride from the Manhattan magazine offices and agencies that hired them.
