Myril Adler Mixed Media

Russian, 1920-2015
Myril Adler, was born on September 22, 1920 in Vitebsk, Russia (now Belarus), and immigrated with her parents to the United States at age 3. An artist from birth, Myril also known as Milly (who was officially and mistakenly given the name Mildred at Ellis Island, a name she always hated), fought not to graduate from high school in Brooklyn before age 15, so that she could stay for one more year as a budding artist and continue to win art awards and recognitions. She went on to further her art studies at the Art Students League and the 92nd Street Y in New York, where she developed her own style, which evolved through many media platforms in her 80+ year career as an artist. MYRIL ADLER Born 1920, Vitebsk, Russia Lived and worked in Briarcliff Manor, NY, 1956-2015 EDUCATION Art Students League, New York, NY, studied with Robert Brackman, portrait painter whose commissions included the Du Ponts and Lindberghs Brooklyn Museum Art School, Brooklyn, NY Theater Arts Workshop at 92nd Street Y, New York, NY, studied with Moi Solotaroff, set designer for Diaghilev’s Ballet Russes and the Artef Yiddish Theater Pratt Graphics Center, New York, NY, studied with Michael Ponce de Leon and Seong Moy TEACHING Director, Myril Adler Arts Workshop, Briarcliff Manor, NY, 1956-2005. Her students include photographer Steve J. Sherman, printmaker Anne Krinsky, illustrator Paul Meisel, glass artist Carina Cheung, ceramic artist Arnie Zimmerman, painter Mateo Neivert, interior designer Sarah Lounsbury, and numerous other professional artists and art teachers. Artist-In-Residence, Pratt Graphics Center, New York, NY Directed art programs for emotionally disturbed children, Hawthorne Cedar Knolls, NY "Mystique of Printmaking" workshops for teachers including lectures and printmaking demonstrations, Katonah Gallery, Katonah, NY and other venues Teacher, children's classes in painting & puppetry, Boulder, Colorado Teacher, art classes for 8 & 9 year olds, Hunt's Point Y, Bronx, NY Concerned at the isolation of the Nisei children who had been relocated with their parents, who were the Japanese language teachers in this program, Myril started a painting and pupperty group including the Nisei children with Boulder children. Mrs. Thomas Folawn, who had come to Boulder in a covered wagon in 1888, offered a lovely brick studio, where Myril conducted classes for the children and wives of the Naval Intelligence Japanese Language School students. Myril became involved in Orchesis Modern Dance Group, designing staging and lighting for the annual recital in 1944: "The Four Freedoms," assisting Marjorie Wentworth, a Martha Graham dancer who was head of the U. of Colorado dance program.
