After several advanced art schools and a stay in the military I spent most of my life as a graphic designer, illustrator and art director in Southern California. When my father was gone I put away his informative writings, and the records that my mother had kept for so many years. As I approached eighty I felt that was left undone, his life as the Museum Artist. My first contact was the University of Wisconsin-Stout. Amazed at the never forgotten attitude and his place in the archives. The first 33 foot long mural has been over the main entrance of Harvey Hall since 1935. The University has a commemoration of the school in 2014-15 and part will be student essays about Cal N. Peters life, work and paintings. As a recent quote from a staff member his presence is still felt in the halls of this University. It is no wonder that I should author The Museum Artist.
