Facts about Charles Green Shaw from Wikipedia:
Charles Green Shaw (1892 - 1974) was a significant figure in American abstract art. Shaw enjoyed a varied career as a writer an illustrator, poet, modernist painter, and collector. Born to a wealthy family and orphaned at a young age, Charles and his twin brother were raised by their uncle, Frank D. Shaw. At age nine, he was already an avid painter and had illustrated his first book, The Costumes of Nations. He also wrote and illustrated the children's book, It Looked Like Spilt Milk, published in 1947.
Shaw graduated from Yale in 1914. He completed a year of architectural studies at Columbia University. He worked as a freelance writer for The New Yorker, The Smart Set,and Vanity Fair, where his focus was the 1920s theatre and caf� society. In 1927, Shaw enrolled in Thomas Hart Benton�s class at the Art Students League of New York. He also studied privately with George Luks. Shaw�s work is part of most major collections of American Art, including the Whitney Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Guggenheim, the Smithsonian Institution, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and the Corcoran Gallery.
