		Kurtzman was recognized during his lifetime by numerous awards, including an Ink Pot Award for Lifetime Achievement at the 1977 San Diego Comics Convention, an Ignatz Gold Brick (Lucca, Italy) and a good number of Eisner and -- yes -- Harvey Awards.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Harvey Kurtzman
		Harvey Kurtzman has won many awards for his work in comic books, but that's not all.
		Before long, Kurtzman was working on his own, handling such features as "Magno & Davey" (a superhero/sidekick team appearing in Ace Magazines' Super-Mystery Comics), Flash (aka Lash) Lightning (another superhero in the same publisher's Sure-Fire Comics) and Flatfoot Burns (a bigfoot-style cop in Police Comics, where Plastic Man and Phantom Lady got their starts).
		In 1962, Kurtzman began a parody of a famous newspaper comic, which he would later describe as his "golden cage" — a feature that paid his bills in fine style, but left him less time than he wanted to pursue other projects.

		Harvey Kurtzman was suffering from Parkinson's Disease when The Harvey Awards began and Nellie Kurtzman had been out of high school for just one year.

	Kurtzman, Harvey
		Harvey Kurtzman (October 3, 1924 - February 21, 1993) was a U.S. cartoonist and magazine editor.
		Because Mad had a considerable impact on popular culture, Kurtzman was later described by the New York Times as having been "one of the most important figures in postwar America." Kurtzman often signed his name "H. Kurtz [male stick figure]" (i.e., "H. Kurtz-Man).
		When Kurtzman and Feldstein were producing humor comics at the same time (Feldstein edited EC's lesser sister publication Panic), it's generally recognized that the difference in quality was vast.

	Amazon.ca: The Mad Archives: Books: Wally Wood,Harvey Kurtzman (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Before Mad was the fl-and-white magazine that has been on the newsstands seemingly forever, it was a 10-cent color comic book, primarily the handiwork of cartoonist-humorist Harvey Kurtzman, who wrote and designed every page during the publication's first four years.
		Kurtzman's mastery of the comics medium was a major element in the stories' effectiveness, and his humor was fresher and brasher than anything else in any medium; it became a major influence on successive generations of humorists, including the 1960s underground cartoonists and the writers of Saturday Night Live.
		The Mad Archives, the first of four volumes collecting the entire comic-book run of Mad, is a valuable reminder of just how gloriously mad it was.
