Illustrators and a member of the board of the
Graphic Artists
Guild. His paintings are in many permanent
collections in the U.S., including the Smithsonian,
and he has won numerous awards. Over the course of
his career, he assembled this file as a research
tool for his own artwork, which included
illustration, graphic art, murals and other genres
in the narrative tradition. The Sloane Art Library
is pleased to be the recipient of this resource,
which consists of 7 vertical file cabinets,
organized by subject.
