We present 3.6 - 90 micron Spitzer Space Telescope observations of the 12 micron sample of AGNs. The data comprise 3.6 - 8.0 micron IRAC broadband imaging, 5.2 - 37 micron IRS low resolution spectral mapping, and 53 - 90 micron MIPS SED measurements. The IRAC and IRS measurements were extracted from 20" synthetic apertures centered on the nucleus. The MIPS SED measurements were extracted from a 30" synthetic aperture along the 20" wide slit. The close matching of the extraction apertures permits a comparison of the contributions of star-formation and the AGN (torus) to the infrared SED of the nucleus. We have decomposed each SED by fitting to starburst and torus models and present preliminary results.
