Rebecca Palter

Palter, Rebecca (1912-1998)

We haven’t located much reliable information about this artist. Palter graduated from Girls Commercial High School, Brooklyn, in 1929. Her paintings were exhibited in a 1938 FAP show in Flushing, NY along with NDG artist Henry Kallem. She married the abstract painter Albert Swinden—also a Federal Art Project artist—and their daughter Alice Swinden Carter went on to become a sculptor in her own right. 2 more images at FAP.
