In 1945, Harvey Dunn was recognized by the National Academy of Design with the coveted status of National Academician. Taught by Howard Pyle, Dunn went on to teach a legion of great American artists beginning shortly before World War I and continuing until World War II. The artist and historian Walt Reed thought Dunn was “one of the most important illustrators of the 20th century, best known for the authenticity of his Western subjects.”
