Index to Artistic Biography

by Patricia P. Havlice

Overview

Index to Artistic Biography, published in 1973, is a massive quick reference guide for the location of artists' biographies in 64 reference works published between 1902 and 1970. The First Supplement covers 70 additional titles containing approximately 47,000 names. Publication dates of the indexed volumes range from the reprint of a 1926 title to the 1980 edition of "Who's Who in American Art". The format of the new volume is identical to the original work: a listing by surname with birth and death dates, nationality, media in which the artist worked, and a code referring to the bibliography of the titles indexed.

Editorial Reviews

...A convenient aid to the general reference collection as well as the specialized fine arts collection...this one index to sixty-four reference works is an important tool, one long needed...should prove to be more than worth the investment.
