Grant Tyson Reynard was an accomplished American who gained an international reputation as a painter, printmaker, teacher and writer. He was born in Grand Island, Nebraska 20th October 1887 to Stephen Blackstone and Jennie Lynd Reynard. His father ran a music store and was also the manager of the Grand Island Opera House. As a youngster Grant would sketch the well-known people who visited the community. He had an early appreciation of music, sang well and originally trained as a pianist. However, he chose to pursue a career in the visual arts, studying at the Art Institute of Chicago, 1906-7, working in the days and studying at night, and then the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts 1908-1911. In 1914 he moved to New Jersey to become a freelance illustrator, and attended summer classes in illustration organised by Harvey Dunn. It was here that he also met and became lifelong friends with John Steuart Curry, Charles Chapman, Mahonri Young and Harry Wickey, all prominent artists. He maintained a studio at Leonia, New Jersey for many years. He quickly established himself as a top illustrator, contributing to major publications of his day, including Rednook Magazine (where he was also the Art Editor), The Saturday Evening Post, Harper’s Bazaar, Collier’s, Ladies’ Home Journal, Country Gentleman, McCalls and Cosmopolitan. His increasing interest in painting and etching took him to the chief centres of study in Europe, especially Paris and London. From 1926 through to 1937 he was a fellow of the MacDowell colony in Petersborough, New Hampshire. Reynard was elected a member of the National Academy of Design and the American Watercolor Society. He was the president of the Montclair Art Museum, and served six years on the faculty of the Grand Central School of Art, New York. He also conducted the Department of Art at Millbrook School, Millbrock, New York, and was artist-in-residence at Palo Duro School of Art in Texas. In 1955 Baldwin-Wallace College awarded him an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters (LHD). Over the years Reynard’s focus shifted from illustration work to his own creative work, but in addition to producing his own art he also lectured in art and taught at several difference schools. Although he travelled extensively he remained loyal to his roots, returning to Nebraska every summer to conduct lectures and art classes in Omaha, Lincoln, Grand Island, Kearney and North Platte. In 1941 Reynard published a book of his poems “Rattling Home for Christmas” which he also illustrated. He remained deeply involved in music, always being a skilled pianist, as well as literature, and his prints often depicted concert halls and museums. Grant Reynard...
