About This Item
World Pub. Co, 1952. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good . John August Groth (1908 - 1988) was an illustrator and teacher. He gained recognition as a war correspondent-illustrator, where he incorporated a technique he called the speed line. He was the first art director of Esquire Magazine and taught at the Art Students League, the Pratt Institute, and the Parsons School of Design. In 1940, he was featured in an exhibition at MOMA, titled, PM Competition: The Artist as Reporter. Deborah Churchman described Groth's work in a 1980 Washington Post article: "Groth's pictures center on the day-to-day life of people caught in terrifying circumstances -- armies occupying cities, soldiers sweeping roads for land mines, bullfighters facing death.
