Dave Stevens was born on July 29, 1955. His career in comics began in 1975, assisting veteranartist Russ Manning on the syndicated Tarzan newspaper strip. Stevens went on to toil as ananimation storyboard artist, as well as storyboarding the occasional film, including Raiders of theLost Arkfor Steven Spielberg, and the groundbreaking Michael Jackson music video Thriller.

In 1982, Stevens debuted the feature for which he is best known, The Rocketeer. Initially appearingas a backup feature in an independent comic, the pulp-inspired story of Cliff Secord, a daring stuntpilot who finds an experimental rocket pack, became an instant sensation. The Rocketeer went onto star in his own comic-book series, and in 1991 would become a well-received major motionpicture from Walt Disney Studios.

Stevens lush figure work, particularly when rendering the female form, coupled with his elegantbrush line, brought him much acclaim far beyond the confines of comic books. In particular, hisbreathy portrayals of Cliff s girlfriend Betty, inspired by famed pin-up queen Bettie Page, helpedrevitalize interest in the 50s icon, a fact openly acknowledged by Page, who became closefriends with Stevens in her final years.

On March 11, 2008, Dave Stevens lost a long battle against Hairy Cell Leukemia.
