I talked to artist Henry Higgenbotham during GenCon '94. If you've picked up a recent White Wolf book, you're probably familiar with his work. Henry designed the death mask for Wraith's The Face of Death, the cover art for Wraith itself and Loom of Fate for Mage, and various covers for FASA. His TSR projects include box covers for Dungeon Master, The Players Survival Guide and Plains of Law for Planescape. Henry has also designed some jacket artwork for the Michael Moorcock Eternal Champion series. Finally, he has designed fetishes and three-dimensional works for Werewolf: The Apocalypse.
