William Heintzelman was a painter, etcher, copyist, teacher, and museum curator, born on November 22, 1891 in Newark, NJ and died on April 4, 1965 in Rockport, MA. In his early work, a desire to document the common person is clear. Old men and woman, peasants and paupers with weathered features, were later replaced by his favorite subject matter – children. In addition to being a successful artist, Heintzelman held such positions as Keeper of Prints at the Boston Public Library and head of the Fine Arts department of the Rhode Island School of Design. He was published in Fine Prints of the Year from 1923 to 1939, and Fifty Prints of the Year in 1934.
