Thomas Hart Benton

Born: April 15, 1889 in Neosho, Missouri, son of Maecenus Eason Benton and Elizabeth Wise Benton

Died: January 19, 1975 in Kansas City, Missouri while finishing a large mural for the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, Tennessee

Thomas Hart Benton was born into political aristocracy, and though he lived a life of privilege, Benton was most comfortable finding himself within the working-class communities of rural America. He found his position as the pre-eminent American Regionalism artist, creating iconic works of art representing rural America and the communities found in the Midwest.

Notes: very good, age appropriate
