Notice biographique
Jean Shepherd (nee Ruryk) was associated with the Emma Lake Art Camp and while there, met artists Ernie Lindner, Wynona (Nonie) Mulcaster, Eva Mendel, Bob Porter, Norm Caplin, ‘Doc’ Palsson, and McGregor Hone. Likely during the early years of the 1940s, Jean moved to Montreal; and many of the artists mentioned were involved to some extent in war service, including Mac Hone, who was a welder in the Vancouver shipyards. This collection contains several illustrated letters from Mac Hone to Jean Ruryk, as well as photographs of Ernie, Bodil and Degner Linder.
