Bernarda Bryson Shahn
Bernarda Bryson Shahn (March 7, 1903 – December 12, 2004)〔 was an American painter and lithographer. She also wrote and illustrated children's books including ''The Zoo of Zeus'' and ''Gilgamesh.'' The renowned artist Ben Shahn was her "life companion" and they married in 1969.〔
Bernarda Bryson was born in Athens, Ohio, where her father owned the ''Athens Morning Journal''. In Ohio she studied at several schools including the Cleveland School of Art, married (ended in divorce), and worked for a newspaper.〔 She met her future husband during a trip to New York in 1932 (or 1933)〔 she took to interview Diego Rivera, whom Shahn was assisting in the production of his Rockefeller Center murals. Both of them worked for the Depression-era Resettlement Administration, later part of the Farm Security Administration. In 1939, they produced a set of 13 murals inspired by Walt Whitman's poem ''I See America Working'' and installed at the United States Post Office-Bronx Central Annex. She continued painting throughout her life, and hosted gallery exhibits from the time her husband died in 1969, to well in her 90s. She died at her home in Roosevelt, New Jersey at the age of 101.〔
