For Jacob Lawrence, it was his childhood in Harlem where the hustle and colors of the neighborhood inspired his interest in art. His compelling story and those of Benny Andrews, Romare Bearden, and Bill Traylor appeal to children and adults alike. Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988) is the youngest of the group. His counterparts came of age in the post-emancipation and pre-civil rights eras. Race is a factor in their lives, but does not curb their determination.
