About this person
Mae Ethel Klinck Myers, better known as Ethel Myers, was an American artist, sculptor, and designer. A New York Realist strongly influenced by the Ashcan School and its leader Robert Henri, she began her career as a painter documenting life on the Lower East Side before establishing herself as a figurative sculptor. She is best known for her small bronze statuettes capturing the everyday life and types of New York City with wit and formal invention. She exhibited nine sculptures at the landmark Armory Show of 1913, where art historian Charlotte Rubinstein has written that she "was one of the most creative of the Americans who exhibited." In later life she worked as a fashion designer, educator, and arts lecturer, and promoted the career of her husband, painter Jerome Myers.
