"Watching De Grazia at work is an amazing experience. The speed with which a painting blooms before your eyes is a mystery to anyone not familiar with the spontaneity and speed with which genius works."-Loda Mae Davis, Trumpeteer, "An entertaining profile of a mischievous man who built a wall of privacy around himself while struggling for approval and widespread recognition of his work." --Phoenix Magazine, "De Grazia's protest [burning his paintings because of opposition to federal inheritance taxes] was all the more surprising in that, while he is widely considered an eccentric genius, he has never been known as a political person."-Edwin McDowell, The Wall Street Journal, "An entertaining profile of a mischievous man who built a wall of privacy around himself while struggling for approval and widespread recognition of his work." --Phoenix Magazine "A well-sourced and meticulously documented study of an iconoclast around whom rumors swirled (some of which he started himself."-- Southwest Books of the Year "Diligently researched, this book is a wonderful compendium of De Grazia's life from birth to grave, with a wealth of fantastic stories depicting the evolution of the artist from a struggling University of Arizona student to a multimillionaire."-- Zócalo Magazine "Entertaining and delightful to read."--Joseph Wilder, director of the Southwest Center at the University of Arizona and editor of Journal of the Southwest "De Grazia's protest [burning his paintings because of opposition to federal inheritance taxes] was all the more surprising in that, while he is widely considered an eccentric genius, he has never been known as a political person."--Edwin McDowell, The Wall Street Journal "Brilliant unorthodox colors, graceful composition alive with imagination, originality--not flamboyant but subtle--these qualities distinguished De Grazia's art."-- Arizona Highways "Watching De Grazia at work is an amazing experience.

Synopsis
This is the first comprehensive biography of artist Ted DeGrazia (1909-1982), who was known as much for his colorful paintings of the Southwest and Mexico as his eccentric personality. De Grazia: The Man and the Myths mines private archival sources, memoirs, and interviews to draw an intriguing new portrait of this western legend., Artist Ted De Grazia (1909-1982) lived life with passion and verve, embracing risk and romance, becoming a legend in Arizona, and gaining international acclaim. De Grazia: The Man and the Myths is a biography that reveals the eccentric, colorful man behind the myths. Born in Arizona Territory to Italian immigrant parents, De Grazia had a humble childhood as a copper miner's son, which later influenced his famous persona. De Grazia often held forth at his gallery in Tucson's Catalina foothills dressed in a pseudo-prospector's getup of scraggly beard, jeans, flannel shirt, boots, and beat-up cowboy hat. Outrageous stories of womanizing, scores of children, and drinking binges created an eclectic image that fueled stories of mythic proportions, along with global sales of his colorful paintings inspired by the Southwest and Mexico. He made millions through his paintings and the licensing of his art for greeting cards and trinkets. Critics called his work kitsch or commercial, yet thousands of admirers continue to love it. Calling De Grazia a complicated man doesn't begin to explain him. He once described himself as "not saint nor devil, but both." In this first comprehensive biography of De Grazia, authors James W. Johnson with Marilyn D. Johnson tell the story of a life remarkably lived.
