His work is part of more than 100 distinguished private and public collections, such as the Library of Congress, the Smithsonian Institution, the Monterey Museum of Art, the Museum of Western Art in Tokyo, and Museo de Belle Arti Lugano in Switzerland.
Born in New York in· 1945, Crispo moved to Carmel with his family at the age of ten. The young artist quickly became immersed in the local artists’ colony.
