The Museum of Nebraska Art has an extensive body of work by illustrator and artist Grant Reynard. A native of Grand Island, Nebraska, Reynard had a successful career as one of America’s outstanding magazine and book illustrators. In middle age, he met fellow Nebraskan Willa Cather at New Hampshire’s MacDowell Colony, a summer artist’s retreat. At her encouragement, he began to focus his artistic endeavors on drawing, painting, and printmaking.
