Dian Hanson is a senior editor and writer for TASCHEN with over 50 books to her credit. In addition to ARNOLD her recent works include The Art of Pin-up Masterpieces of Fantasy Art and The Fantastic Worlds of Frank Frazetta. Read here how it all began. Touko Laaksonen the boy who would become Tom of Finland (1920-1991) began drawing cartoons at age five. His favorite subjects were the rough manly men of his native Finland. He found success in the Finnish advertising industry but secretly continued creating his increasingly erotic drawings of hyper-masculine men. In 1957 he submitted some drawings to the American magazine Physique Pictorial and the Tom of Finland legend was born. By the late 60s Toms dirty drawings became the standard for gay art and Toms Men a template for a new gay masculinity.
