Kyra Markham was an actress, figurative painter and printmaker. Markham was briefly married to the architect Lloyd Wright, and five years later, married the scenographer, David Stoner Gaither. She worked for the Federal Arts Project, creating works of social realism that documented American life in the 1930s. During World War II, her art was focused on the propaganda effort against the Nazis. She produced an interesting body of lithographs, mostly figurative, showing the working class people in an almost otherworldly surrealist manner. She also produced prints under the Works Progress Administration/Federal Art Project as well as paintings. Markham was associated with many in the New York art world.
