Charlotte Joan Sternberg Wall Decorations
American, 1920-2003
Charlotte Joan Sternberg was born in Meriden, Connecticut, in 1920. She attended Yale University and received a degree in fine art in 1942. She painted portraits of injured and ill soldiers during World War II. Sternberg also painted a portrait for Dwight Eisenhower during his presidency. It was also during this time that she discovered egg tempera. Sternberg became a commercial illustrator. She worked for companies such as J. Walter Thompson, a major advertising firm in New York. Her artwork was also exhibited in one-woman shows at the New Britain Museum of American Art in Connecticut and the Bennington Museum in Vermont and is in many private collections. From 1970–1984, Sternberg served on the faculty of the Paier College of Art in Hamden, Connecticut, where she taught rendering, perspective, creative painting and egg tempera in the interior design, illustration and fine art departments. In 1980, she was inducted into the Meriden, Connecticut Hall of Fame.
