Born in Gloucester, Massachusetts, Burt Procter became a painter of western landscape and 'cowboys and Indians", often riding horses. Much of his painting was done in his leisure time from his early career as mining engineer and later as a commercial illustrator. Of his early talent, it was said he painted horses before he could walk, and he became a skillful rider.
Procter grew up as the son of a newspaper reporter. In 1908, at age seven, he moved with his family (showing 500 of 4331 characters). |
