13 years ago on Memorial Day Howard Brodie was interviewed on the PBS News Hour by Betty Ann Bowser. Howard Brodie was the dean of courtroom art, beginning his career as a court artist for CBS covering the Jack Ruby Trial ( which will be included in the Illustrated Courtroom: 50 Years of Court Art). He was also a revered combat artist and drew on the front lines in many battles and speaks about those experiences in the interview.
Howard was a remarkable artist and person. We are honored that he agreed to be part of the upcoming book.
Below is the transcript of the interview from 1996
