John Augustus Walker : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Augustus Walker
John Augustus Walker (1901–1967) was a well-known Alabama Gulf Coast artist of the Depression era who was commissioned to undertake several art projects for the Works Progress Administration. ==Early life== Born in Mobile, Alabama, Walker was first encouraged to become an artist by an elementary school teacher, Mayme Simpson. Forced at an early age to become the family breadwinner, Walker worked from 1 p.m. to 1 a.m. daily for the Mobile & Ohio Freight Department, limiting his sleep so that he could devote more waking hours to the study of drawing and painting. He began his studies under Edmund C. DeCelle (misspelled in his letter as Cecile) of Mobile.〔Letter from John A. Walker to Henrietta Mary Thompson, University of Alabama, April 12, 1935〕
