A painter of many portraits especially of dignitaries and other prominent people, Olive Bigelow was born in Mountain Station, New Jersey. Her father, John Bigelow, had been a career diplomat, and her husband was Herbert Pell, a foreign minister in the Franklin Roosevelt administration, so she was very oriented towards international matters.
Many of her subjects were part of the War Crimes Commission in London in 1944. She also designed posters for the war effort, for women's suffra (showing 500 of 1042 characters). |
