He was sentenced to death at age 15 for anti-Tsarist remarks and managed to escape to Rome thanks to his friendship with Maxim Gorky and his mother selling off her jewelry; he studied at the academy in Rome and then emigrated to New York in 1929 sponsored by his cousin Joseph Hirschhorn. During the Depression he worked as an artist for the WPA. He was a prolific artist well represented in exhibits and in museum collections. Self Published unknown
