Artist Biographies, ca. 1924-1993

The May Show office solicited biographies from accepted artists by sending each artist a brief biographical questionnaire. The biographies of accepted artists were requested, but not always submitted. Artists occasionally submitted photographs or additional information with their biography sheet. The single sheet provides the following: name, date and place of birth, primary media, art training, exhibitions in which the artist's work has been shown, collections which now include the artist's work, awards received, and the present position of the artist. The Insight/Onsite Show biographies of 1991 are filed separately in Series 3.
