Born in the village of Ixtlahuaca, in the state of Mexico, Emilio Amero counts Spaniards and Otomi Indians among his ancestors. Shortly after his birth, the family moved to Mexico City. In 1911 he began his studies in art at the Academy of San Carlos. He also studied drawing privately with Antonio Gomez, a family friend and well-known newspaper artist.
At the academy in 1917, he became acquainted with Diaz de Leon, Rufino Tamayo, Ramon Alva de la Canal, Enrique Ugarte, and Leopoldo Mendez-all students there at the time. Later he joined the open air school in Coyoacan, founded and directed by Alfredo Ramos Martinez. He and Jean Charlot, with whom he later worked closely in graphic arts, first met in 1921 in the library of the Academy of San Carlos at an exhibition which included some of Amero's work. The two became better acquainted when, together with Mewrida, Guerrero, and Rivera, they worked on the Preparatory School and Ministry of Education murals. The year 1923 found Amero and Charlot at work on the same lithographic stone, intent on reviving the long neglected art of printmaking. Amero is generally acknowledged as chiefly responsible for the renaissance of graphic arts, especially lithography, which paralleled the mural renaissance in Mexico.
Amero went to New York in 1924 and worked for several magazines and newspapers, among them the Herald Tribune, the Times, the World-Telegram, the Brooklyn Eagle, The New Yorker, Theatre Magazine and the Boston Transcript. At the beginning of the 'thirties Amero returned to Mexico and taught at San Carlos, now known as the Central School of Plastic Arts of the University of Mexico.
In 1940 Amero came to Seattle, Washington to teach at the University of Washington....... He later became art director of the Cornish school and afterward directed his own New School of Art. In 1946 he became a member of the art faculty of the University of Oklahoma.
Amero had at least ten major one-man shows, in New York, Havana, Mexico City, Seattle and in Norman, Oklahoma. He also participated in many important group shows and won many awards.
