In the brief span of six years between his college graduation and enlistment in the U.S. Army, the award-winning artist exhibited at the nation's leading museums (including the Carnegie, Whitney, Corcoran, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and National Academy of Design) as well as the 1939 World's Fair.
