Born in Lynn, Massachusetts, Oliver became a painter of marine subjects in luminist style from his studio in Lynn where he lived most of his life. He began in his family shoe manufacturing business, but devoted much effort to painting. Many of his works were converted into chromolithographs by Prang and Company of Boston.
