Howard Brodie was called “the ultimate journalist” by Walter Cronkite, his longtime colleague at the CBS Evening News, which Brodie joined in 1964. As a courtroom artist for decades, he not only witnessed but depicted many the most significant trials of his era, at a time when photography was restricted. Before that, he became one of the most recognized combat artists in World War II in both the Pacific and European theaters. He is survived by his wife Isabel Brodie, son Bruce and daughter Wendy.
