| From Albia, Iowa, Martella Cone Lane became a painter especially noted
for the redwood trees of northern California. She was the
youngest of five children in a family supported by a father who was a
minister. In 1890, when she was fifteen, her family moved to
Hollister, California, but she remained in the Midwest to attend Cotner
College in Lincoln, Nebraska. In 1895, she had earned a diploma
in art, and in 1931, the College bestowed an honorary Doctor of Fine
Arts Degre (showing 500 of 4012 characters). |
