Earl Norem passed away on June 19, 2015. Born on April 17, 1924, he was 91 years old.

It's little known but Mr Norem provided the artwork on several transformers story books from the early 80's.

I found out about his passing through an article on Seibertron (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/legendary-artist-earl-norem-passes-away/33296/)

that article links to a sort of interview (http://www.seibertron.com/people/interviews/view.php?interview_id=14)that one of the members there did with Earl a few years ago. It's a very interesting read and a fine way of remembering someone involved with books that I can't remember how many times I read as a youngster.

My thoughts with his family, and appreciation for work that he did so many years ago.
