Talk:Mary Beth Edelson

Article creation
Just as an FYI, I've posted a very early draft of Mary Beth Edelson on the off-chance that someone else didn't start working on this "needed article". I will continue to work on this in my user space and then update this article. If there is an "off chance" situation, let me know if you'd like to "divide and conquer" the work on this article.-- CaroleHenson  ( talk ) 20:55, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

John the Baptist vs. John the Apostle
I noticed on the Georgia O'Keefe page (and then followed to this one) that the figure of John the Apostle in Da Vinci's Last Supper is referred to as John the Baptist (he does not appear in Da Vinci). This could have been a clerical error, but I didn't want to change it in the event that it was based on remarks of the artist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2606:6000:60C7:600:C1E7:BE78:D5E0:5D5C (talk) 05:30, 8 December 2019 (UTC)


 * John the Baptist was removed as I was checking and improving sources.–CaroleHenson (talk) 03:49, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

Birth place?
The reference book I have, "Great Women Artists" ISBN 0714878774, lists "Chicago" as her birthplace. I am having some difficulty determining whether Edelson is from East Chicago, Indiana or Chicago, Illinois. Both links in the article to references on birth place are dead. Could someone point me to an online citation? Thanks. WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 16:26, 10 December 2019 (UTC)


 * This is old, but her birthplace is repeatedly stated to say that it's "East Chicago, Indiana". Probably the best secondary source is The Grove Encyclopedia by Marter. Several of the newspaper articles from Indianapolis also state her birth place. I have not seen a source that said her birth place was Chicago, Illinois.–CaroleHenson (talk) 03:48, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
