Ogden M. Pleissner
Born New York, 1905
Died England, 1983
Ogden Pleissner was born in Brooklyn in 1905, and educated at the Friends School. Later, he studied figure painting and portraiture with Frank DuMond and Frederick J. Boston at Manhattan's Art Students League. Pleissner married Mary Corbett in Portland, Oregon in 1929. The couple settled in Brooklyn, as Pleissner took a position as a teacher as Pratt University for the next four years.
Pleissner began painting in watercolors in the 1930s. In 1932 the Metropolitan Museum of Art purchased an oil painting of Brooklyn Heights from him, an act that made him its youngest artist. In 1935, he taught at the National Academy and was elected an Associate and then Academician, all the while keeping various studios in Brooklyn and Manhattan. During World War II, he painted for the United States Air Force, and also illustrated the Normandy invasion for Life magazine. After his return from the war, he moved to Pawlet, Vermont where he built a house and kept a studio. In March of 1974 tragedy struck as Pleissner's wife, Mary, suddenly died. After three years of mourning his loss, Pleissner married again to Mary Marion Gould. The new couple moved to Manchester, Vermont that very same year. Pleissner died in London, England at age 78.
Pleissner's work is included in more than thirty public collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, and hangs in the offices of the Pentagon, West Point, and the Air Force Academy.
