Robert E. Gilbert

May 6, 1924 - April 4, 1993

Robert E. Gilbert was one of the more prolific fan artists of the late 1950s and 1960s. His art appeared in a variety of fanzines from ''Amra'' to ''Riverside Quarterly, Sandworm'' and ''Yandro''. He was a graduate of the Washington School of Art and a veteran of World War II. His fanart was often signed REG.

He had stories published professionally in Galaxy, Infinity, Planet and other magazines in the 1950s. In later years he had little contact with SF fandom except for Buck Coulson and Alan Dodd. He died at his home in Jonesborough, TN.
