==Background==
William Berra was born in York, Pennsylvania, in 1952. As a child he constantly sketched and painted. By high school he was copying the Neo-Classic painters and old masters, and he supplemented high school classes with attendance at the York Academy of Art.〔Glenn, p. 98.〕 During his one year at the Maryland Institute College of Art he experimented with Abstract expressionism, but realized that it was not for him.〔Fauntleroy 2000, p. 90.〕 He decided to strike out on his own, traveling throughout North America, capturing the landscape in studies painted en plein air.
While traveling cross country in 1976, Berra arrived in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He was dazzled by the landscape and the clarity of the high desert light, and stayed to paint it.〔Oakton, p. 31.〕 His work was chosen for the 1978 Biennial Exhibition at the New Mexico Museum of Art. Jean Seth, owner of Seth's Canyon Road Art Gallery, saw the exhibition and offered him a show and representation. William Berra's career as a professional artist was born.〔Fauntleroy 2000, p. 91.〕
