Harvey Pekar - Oct 8 1939 - July 12, 2010
Rest in peace Harvey.
Harvey Pekar, whose autobiographical comic book series "American Splendor" portrayed his unglamourous life with bone-dry honesty and wit, was found dead July 12 at his home in Cleveland. He was 70.
Pekar had suffered from prostate cancer, asthma, high blood pressure and depression.
The 2003 film chronicling his life, "American Splendor," was Oscar-nommed for adapted screenplay and won the best picture and screenplay awards from the Los Angeles Film Critics and best first film from the New York Film Critics. Paul Giamatti played Pekar in the film.
"Harvey was one of the most compassionate and empathetic human beings I've ever met," Giamatti said in a statement. "He had a huge brain and an even bigger soul. And he was hilarious. He was a great artist, a true American poet, and there is no one to replace him."
