From robertbroderson.com:

Robert Broderson began painting at Duke University in 1950 and, in 1952, continued painting and studied printmaking with Mauricio Lasansky at the University of Iowa, where he received an MFA in 1952. Broderson then returned to Duke where he taught drawing and painting for twelve years and became an Associate Professor of Art. He left Duke in 1964 after receiving a Guggenheim Fellowship. Broderson also taught at North Carolina State in Raleigh in 1967-68 and at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine during the summer of 1967. After the sixties, Broderson gave up teaching and devoted all his life to painting. He died in 1992, at the age of 71.
