Ninth Street Women and Their Legacy Panel Discussion

Artists Marie Theres Berger, Melissa Meyer, Cheryl Levin, Bill Scott, and Mary Page Evans discuss their work and their relationships with the Ninth Street Women. Moderated by Amanda Burden, curator at the Brandywine River Museum of Art.
This exhibition features original works by Elaine de Kooning, Grace Hartigan, Lee Krasner, Helen Frankenthaler, and Joan Mitchell hung alongside Marie Theres-Berger, Mary Page Evans, Cheryl Levin, Melissa Meyer, and Bill Scott. The female Abstract Expressionist painters, featured in the 9th Street Exhibition of 1951 in New York City, were living and creating during one of the most turbulent social and political periods of modern times. Their paintings hang in museums throughout the world and have inspired many artists including the five hanging alongside them in this exhibition - some of whom had the opportunity to personally know them.

I read Ninth Street Women a while back, does anyone remember the name of the man who taught some of the women drawing?
