Marjorie McKee (born April 30, 1912 died October 11, 2007) was an artist and former scholarship student of Hans Hofmann in New York City as well as in Provincetown, Mass. For reasons this article will help clarify, she and her work have all but disappeared from the annals of modern art and the abstract expressionist movement. even though, she was a contemporary and close friend of Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner, Harold Rosenberg, Robert De Niro Sr., Harry Jackson and many other luminaries of the New York art world. Was her work uninteresting? Peggy Guggenheim didn’t think so when she gave Marjorie McKee one of the last one person shows at her fifty-seventh street gallery in New York, Art of This Century, before leaving for Venice in 1947. Yet, Marjorie McKee remains virtually unknown even to assiduous students of the thirties and forties art world in New York. This, in spite of the fact that she was reviewed by Clement Greenberg, who listed her work in The Nation in 1947 and compared her to Pollack and  other promising young artists  of the period. Even one of the staff of the Museum of Modern Art told this author that “no photograph of any of Marjorie McKee’s work had ever been found. by Museum staff.” Her last exhibition was held at the Smolin Gallery in June, 1961, some forty five years before her death in 2007 at the age of ninety five. This last exhibition was a sell-out with every piece purchased. ```` https://books.google.ca/books?id=ReQCAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA34&lpg=PA34&dq=Marjorie+McKee+artist&source=bl&ots=CjJq-C2-L6&sig=IVGGsUz84XkVFCD4V9rlCNZlrnI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjKgevxze3JAhUDpR4KHeECALAQ6AEIHDAA#v=onepage&q=Marjorie%20McKee%20artist&f=false
