Rebecca Salsbury James
(1891 - 1968)

Rebecca Salsbury James was born in London, England, in 1891, when her parents were traveling with the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show. Following her father’s death in 1902, Rebecca and her mother settled in New York. While married to avant-garde photographer, Paul Strand, Rebecca would become a self-taught artist, working in oils, pastels, and reverse oils on glass, for which she’s best remembered. In the 1930’s she divorced Strand, and moved to Taos, New Mexico, where she had been a frequent visitor. In 1937 she married Bill James, and remained a resident of Taos until her death in 1968.
