Leonard H. Reedy was born in 1899, Chicago, Illinois. Despite living and working in Chicago most of his life, he became a known painter of the Old West, as he was able to do some traveling to the West, as well as studying the subject at the Chicago Art Institute and the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts. Such background allowed Reedy to excel in the subject. Clara Elizabeth Sackett was born in Westfield NY. She was a painter and portrait teacher in Buffalo, NY. Around 1897 she studied at the Art League of New York, and in Paris with Arma-Jean and at the Academy Delecluse and Carabossi from 1881-96. She exhibited in Buffalo, Philadelphia, and Boston.
