Howard Elmer Wandrei (24 September 1909 – 5 September 1956)[1] was a United States artist and writer. He wrote over 200 stories that appeared in the magazines Weird Tales, Astounding, Esquire, Black Mask and others. Wandrei wrote under his own name and as by Robert Coley and H.W. Guernsey.
Wandrei is better remembered for his illustrations[2] many of which were included in the books of his brother, Donald Wandrei.
Several collections of Wandrei's stories were announced as forthcoming from Arkham House[3] but were not published by Arkham House.
Fedogan & Bremer has published several collections of Wandrei's stories using some of the same titles as the proposed Arkham House publications.
