Perhaps the most important Taos-based illustrator, Frank Hoffman’s job as art director for the Chicago American prepared him for his first trip West in 1916. After meeting Leon Gaspard in Taos, Hoffman stayed on and bought a small ranch two miles from town. He did work for The Saturday Evening Post and produced calendars and advertising for The Great Northern Railway and Brown & Bigelow.
