Artist Biography (from Windosor Betts):
Born in New York, Michael Fitzhugh Wright studied at Yale Music and Art School, Albright Art School and Brooklyn Museum School. After serving in Korea as a regimental artist, he began his career as a painter in New York City in 1954. As a young painter, Wright was friend and colleague of Jackson Pollock, Franz Kline and David Smith in the  famous days of the Cedar Bar and Eighth Street Art Club. He studied with Paul Brach through the New School and showed in several tenth street galleries. After ten years in New York City, Michael moved to East Hampton where he was artistic assistant to the legendary Willem de Kooning from 1965 through 1967. While in East Hampton, Wright had several solo shows at the Guild and won the prestigious Long Island Painters' Award.
