About The Artist:
William Franklin McMahon (September 9, 1921 – March 3, 2012) was an American Artist-Reporter. His seminal work at the birth of the civil rights movement, his coverage of U.S. presidential campaigns between 1960 and 2008, America's role in the space race, the formation of the European council, Vatican II, and scores of other political, cultural, religious and sporting events; all were part of a Franklin McMahon "day at the office" for the last 55+ years ... except that for him, his office was his studio, which is the world. In the words of Peter Lyle of The Sunday Telegraph of London:
... his pencil and his pad have been witness to many of the most significant events in postwar American and world history.
His artistic output also included films and books. His widespread recognition, as evidenced by his exhibitions, his awards, and the broad array of national and international institutions who hold his work, demonstrates that Lyle's title "The Man Who Drew History" is well-earned.
Other than in his very early years when he did illustrations "on spec", he was not an "after-the-fact" illustrator. In his own words, drawing from life made him an "artist-reporter" or a "reportorial artist." "That way," he said, "you can see around the corner."
