JEAN HALPORT-RYDER

Painter and printmaker Jean Halpert-Ryden was born in New York City in 1919. A mostly independent student of art, Halpert-Ryden studied at Brooklyn College. She went on to study with a collective under painter and stage designer Moi Solotaroff, and participated in her first show at the Norlyst Gallery (Manhattan, 1946), before moving to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1949.

She met and married artist and designer Edward Ryden in Boulder, Colorado, in 1947. Two years later they moved to the San Francisco Bay Area where both artists continued to study and exhibit, and in 1971 they traveled to Israel. In 1985 they took up residence there, where they helped found a community in the Galilee Hills. Both artists continued their artistic endeavors, until their return to California in 2002. Halpert-Ryden's art is included in both private and public collections throughout the U.S.
