Schomburg, born Alejandro Schomburg y Rosa (/ˈʃɒmbɜːrɡ/; May 10, 1905 – April 7, 1998 was a Puerto Rican commercial artist and comic-book artist and painter whose career lasted over 70 years. In the early 1950s, Schomburg left comics and spent the remainder of his career on covers and illustrations for science fiction magazines, astrology publications, and books, including the Winston juvenile series. In 1962, Schomburg moved to a ranch house in Newberg, Oregon. His home was later purchased by the local university, George Fox University, and converted into student housing under the name "Schomburg House". In 1977, Schomburg and a few of his fellow Golden Age comic book artists collaborated on the Invaders Annual #1, written by Roy Thomas. Schomburg penciled and inked a six-page chapter featuring the Golden Age Human Torch. Late in life, Schomburg resided in Hillsboro, Oregon, and died in Beaverton, Oregon, on April 7, 1998.
