They board the "W…estern Lion" packet in Albany, New York, for a journey to Niagara Falls. ; Walter "Wat" Dumaux Edmonds (July 15, 1903 - January 24, 1998) was an American writer best known for historical novels. One of them, Drums Along the Mohawk (1936), was adapted as a Technicolor feature film in 1939 . He graduated from Harvard University in 1926 ; Tompkins (1907-2007 ) was a book illustrator, designer of weapons and household appliances, a lecturer on art and art history, and best know in Hartford as the Dean of the Hartford Art School when it joined the University of Hartford. However, he was foremost a painter, who is said to have painted every year of his life from age 7 until shortly before he died at age 100. In 1925 he entered Columbia University in Manhattan, initially planning to follow his father as an engineer by enrolling as a pre-engineering student. However, he quickly determined that his love for art and his lack of skills in mathematics suggested another path. "As an idealistic student, I fell so hopelessly in love with art that my friends would muse - with some accuracy - that I would rather paint than eat." After some cajoling, his parents finally consented to his study of history and art history. He received a BFA from Columbia in 1929 and obtained his BFA from Yale in 1933. During World War II, Tompkins worked at General Electric in Bridgeport. There, he helped develop the Bazooka gun. ; bookplate of Mary Ellen Lanks, who was the subject of a series of well-known black and white photos taken from 1930 to1950 in Pennsylvania ; VF/G. Book.
