Tad Burness
YOU, AND A LOT OF US, MAY WELL have gotten your start in our world by sketching cars and trucks instead of paying attention in class.
Famed auto historian and illustrator Ted Burness documented the American car for decades through his weekly newspaper column Auto Album and his American Car.
Maybe the ruler came down across your knuckles, too, in an attempt to dissuade you. Now, imagine not only avoiding punishment for your dawdling, but making it a career. That’s the life story of Tad Burness. He was a prolific illustrator of motor vehicles, of every variety, and grew it into a series of newspaper packages, books and more.
Best of all, we can only imagine how many ordinary car people’s doodlings he vindicated through his own success.
He was born Wallace Burness in Berkeley, California, in 1933.
'My Dad Had That Car' is a much bigger but not necessarily better book · 'Car Spotter's Bible' a simple but useful reference.Like many of us, Burness derived particular enjoyment from scratching away on paper, leaving images of cars in his wake. He met his wife through a computerized dating program–definitely something off the wall in 1967–but they still eloped and made a lifelong marriage.
All the while, Burness kept on drawing.
