In 1931, Fort Worth native Dickson Reeder went to New York to study portraiture with Wayman Adams and later printmaking in Paris at William Stanley Hayter's Atelier 17, where he met his wife, Flora Blanc. In 1940, the couple settled in Fort Worth, where they quickly became two of the central figures in a group of mid-century modernists known as the Fort Worth Circle.
