Summary
Artist and painter Annie Frances Lee was born on March 3, 1935 in Gadsden, Alabama. She grew up in Chicago, Illinois and attended Wendell Phillips High School. Lee began painting early, winning her first art competition at age ten. It was not until age forty that Lee decided to pursue a career as an artist. She enrolled in Loop Junior College, completing her undergraduate work at Mundelein College in Chicago. After eight years of night classes while working at Northwestern Railroad as a clerk, Lee earned her M.A. degree in interdisciplinary arts education from Loyola University. Lee's previous job inspired one of her most popular paintings, Blue Monday. In 1985, Lee allowed prints made of four of her original paintings. Several of her paintings have appeared on the sets of popular television shows such as The Cosby Show and A Different World. Lee passed on November 24, 2014 at age 79.
