| Born in 1868 in Dover, New Jersey, Anna Milo Upjohn studied art in Munich, Florence, and Paris from 1893-1899 and then returned for further European studies from 1909 to 1914. At the outbreak of the First World War, Upjohn immediately went to France and volunteered for relief work helping refugees under the Fund for Devastated Villages. When the American Red Cross decided it needed an illustrator, she joined its staff. Beginning in 1918, she created a series of health posters for the American Re (showing 500 of 1378 characters). |
