Herbert S. “Andy” Anderson
Born in Chicago, Illinois in 1893. In his teens, he and his family moved to Turret, Colorado. At the age of 16, Andy left home to work as a cowboy, and that experience would go on to influence his carvings. He moved to California in 1927 where he began to really flourish as a woodcarver, creating characters of the Old West. During WWII, most of his carving went to high-ranking officials in the Army, one even made its way to President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
His carvings, as well as photos of his works, were circulated around the world. He passed away on Aug. 20, 1960 at the age of 67. Andy is considered one of the great masters of 20th century woodcarving. His works can be viewed at the Stark Museum of art in Orange Texas.
