Marcia Louise Snyder (sometimes spelled "Snider") was a comic book artist and newspaper cartoonist who worked for the Binder Studio, Timely Comics, Fawcett Comics, and Fiction House during the Golden Age of Comic Books.
Snyder was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan on May 13, 1907.[1] She graduated from Western Normal High School in 1925.[2]
Around the time she started working for Timely, she lived in Greenwich Village with her girlfriend, Mickey.[3] At Fiction House, a publisher known for its female adventure heroes, she worked on such titles as "Camilla", a jungle girl feature in Jungle Comics.[4] [5]
In the late 1970s, she "assisted" on the police comic Kerry Drake. What exactly that role entailed is unclear, though it is known that the original and credited creator was relying on ghostwriters and artists at that point.[6]
Snyder is rumored to have married later in life.[7]
She died on February 27, 1976, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.[2]
