SUMMARY:Zara Anishanslin\, The Painter's Fire: A Forgotten History of the Artists Who Championed the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:The war that we now call the American Revolution was not only 
 fought in the colonies by soldiers with muskets and bayonets. On both sides 
 of the Atlantic\, artists also played an integral role in forging 
 revolutionary ideals. Discover the inspiring stories and intertwined lives 
 of three of these largely forgotten Patriot artists: Robert Edge Pine\, 
 Prince Demah\, and Patience Wright. They defied the British monarchy\, 
 armed with paint\, canvas\, wax\, and espionage while risking their lives 
 and reputations to support the cause of liberty. \n\nZara Anishanslin is 
 Associate Professor of History and Art History at the University of 
 Delaware\, where she also is Director of its Museum Studies and Public 
 Engagement Program. Her award-winning first book\, Portrait of a Woman in 
 Silk: Hidden Histories of the British Atlantic World\, was published by 
 Yale University Press in 2016. For her new book\, The Painter’s Fire: A 
 Forgotten History of the Artists Who Championed the American Revolution\, 
 she’s been a Mount Vernon Georgian Papers Fellow at the Royal Archives at 
 Windsor Castle\, a Davis Center Fellow in Princeton’s History 
 Department\, a Mellon/ACLS Scholars & Society Fellow with the Museum of the 
 American Revolution\, and a Fellow at the David Center for the American 
 Revolution at the American Philosophical Society. An avid public 
 historian\, she often works with museums on exhibitions\, including the 
 reinstallation of the Early American Wing at the Philadelphia Museum of 
 Art.\n\nThis public program is made possible by federal Library Service and 
 Technology Act funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services\, 
 which enable the New York State Library to champion lifelong learning.
