    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    That's great, @Debora -- The librarian in me can't help asking, what is/are the source(s) for this information? Is it one source, or compiled from a variety of sources?

    Thank you, @Debora -- that helps, although it doesn't say where they got the information. It still sounds like it came from an authoritative source. They might have expanded the information that appears in brief in Who Was Who in American Art, which is generally highly abbreviated.

    The information does sound authoritative enough. And it references his "own hand-written summary of his career" which implies the author had access.

    Interesting... On his 1940 draft registration card, he lists his employer as "Jan Vink" who, according to the internet, was an architect based in New Bedford, NY.

    That’s interesting Debora. I also saw him in Who was Who. My Dad had many many antique books. That book and a few sales was all I ever found out about him.

    There are some mentions of his earlier exhibits in The New York Times and The New Yorker.
