| Known for his pin-up girl illustrations and especially for his skill
with the conté crayon, Bill Ward began his career during World War II
with the creation of his sexy gal, Torchy, to divert his fellow
soldiers. Because his work seemed to meet "America's collective
postwar sex fantasy" and the timing was right for the men's magazines
that hit the market in the 1950s, Ward became one of the most popular
"girlie artists" in America. In the next four decades he expanded
his subj (showing 500 of 6754 characters). |
