Biography edit

Herbert Tauss was born in New York City. He attended the High School of Industrial Art, and upon graduating, secured an apprenticeship at the Traeger Phillips Studio. His first illustrations were made in 1949 for Pageant magazine, following by work for other publications which included American Weekly, Argosy, The Saturday Evening Post, Redbook, National Geographic,[4] Parents and McCall's magazines.

He joined the Charles E. Cooper Studio in 1955 and when the illustration markets began to constrict in the early 1960s, he moved to England to work for the British market. He returned to the U.S. in the early 1970s and became prolific in the paperback market when, among other things, he illustrated the series of historical novels, the Kent Family Chronicles, which sold over 40 million copies. He also illustrated several limited edition books for the Franklin Library. Tauss taught at the School of Visual Arts, Pratt Institute, Marymount College and the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City.
