| Paul Rodda Cook, 1897-1972, a muralist, and painter of portraits,
landscapes and still-lifes, was born in Salinas, Kansas. His family
moved to Uvalde, Texas when he was 7 years old. It took some time for
Cook to realize that he wanted to be an artist. He first studied law at
the University of Texas, Austin, leaving school for Massachusetts,
where he took a job, obviously marking time, in sales for a tanning
company. He was saved by an illness that sent him back to San Ant (showing 500 of 5645 characters). |
