Class of 1905
Hall of Honor 1983
Grant T. Reynard, nationally known painter, illustrator and lecturer, began his career as Art Editor of REDBOOK Magazine in Chicago. His illustrations appeared in many national magazines, and later, his roots in the Midwest appeared in his paintings and etchings.
The spaciousness and emptiness of the prairie land reflected his deepening spiritual awareness and his work reflects an abiding interest in the American scene.
