1967 Vivian Beaumont Theatre David Stone Martin was one of the most prolific and influential artists of the postwar era. With his signature hand sketched graphics in two or three primary colors he perfectly captured the energy and spontaneity of the jazz idiom and post war America. David was born in Chicago and studied at the Art Institute there. During the 1930’s and 1940’s he worked for various government agencies such as The Federal Artists Project and The Office of Strategic Services where he met artist Ben Shahn, who greatly influenced his future artistic style.
