"H. J. Ward sold freelance pulp covers to many different publishers, including Munsey, Dell, Popular, but the majority of his work was published by Trojan Publications. Trojan was owned by Harry Donenfeld and edited by Frank Armer. Ward became their top artist. He created many iconic pulp covers for Trojan Magazines, such as 'Bedtime Stories,' 'Lone Ranger,' 'Speed Adventure,' 'Spicy Adventure,' 'Spicy Detective,' 'Spicy Western,' 'Super Detective,' 'Tattle Tales,' and 'Private Detective.'
"In 1941 H. J. Ward prepared a portfolio of prospective illustrations to show to art editors in a concerted effort to find work in advertising and slick magazines.
"Ward was inducted into the Army on April 13, 1944. He was recorded at induction to be tall, thin, with dark hair, and a heavy smoker.
"Soon after enlistment, Ward began to experience problems with his shoulder. Medical examination determined that he had a cancerous tumor in his lung.
"Hugh Joseph Ward died at age 35 on February 7, 1945."
