Born in Lexington, North Carolina in 1937, Bob Timberlake spent his youth in the rural South. Upon graduation from college, he entered the family business where he remained, painting in his spare time, until he decided to turn his full attention to painting in 1970.

In the late seventies he was summoned to the White House by President Jimmy Carter to design the "Keep American Beautiful Campaign" he ended up featuring Iron Eyes Cody". http://www.adcouncil.org/files/pollu...toric_cody.gif

My mom has some of his originals and bought some for as little as 50 bucks back when the artist was barely known.

Through his work Bob Timberlake has inspired people all around the world.
