Samuel Bernard Schaeffer was born in 1905. He was trained at the Art
Guild and the New York Evening Industrial School of Art. He completed
over 200 book jackets and bindings for 35 different publishers. He
illustrated three books two of which are titled: LOTUS AND
CHRYSANTHEMUM and THE BOOK OF AMERICAN PRESIDENTS. He
published two books on nudes the first being MORNING NOON NIGHT
(1937) and the other POSE PLEASE (1936). MORNING NOON
NIGHT featured mostly female nudes that were engaged in household
activities. He took the mundane, put his stamp on it and made it
beautiful.
