The Case of the Radioactive Redhead
Robert Maguire began his education at Duke University, but like so many others of his generation, left for service in World War II. Upon his return, his interest in art led him to the Art Students League, where his instructor was the famed Frank Reilly.
Maguire’s career took off immediately with his first work for Trojan Publications: cover art for their line of small pocket pulps. His classic period of the 50s and 60s grew out of his skilled female images, some of the best and most memorable of the period.
