Harrison Fisher (American, 1875-1934)
Fisher was born in Brooklyn, New York. He was a third-generation artist in a family that included his grandfather, Felix Xiver Fisher and his father, Hugo Antoine Fisher. His grandparents emigrated from Austria, an area that is now in Czechoslovakia, with the family name of Fischer. For unknown reasons, the spelling later changed to Fisher after immigration. Harrison Fisher became nationally known for his illustrations of beautiful women, known as the Harrison Fisher Girls. His illustrations appeared frequently in "Saturday Evening Post", "Scribner's", "Life", and "Cosmopolitan".
