Robert Wiliam Meyers was a Golden Age Illustrator who was born in New York City in 1919 but later moved to Cody, Wyoming where he focused on western landscapes and early settlers and the Western expansion. His illustrations appeared in such magazines as True, Argosy, The Saturday Evening Post and Reader’s Digest.  In December 1950 he started working with the Charles E. Cooper Studios in New York and it was here where he met James Bama. The two became instant friends and that friendship would last for the rest of his life.   
 
In 1960, he moved his family to the 300-acre Circle M Ranch on the South Fork of the Shoshone River near Yellowstone National Park, fifty miles from Cody, Wyoming where Bama ended up as well. He died in 1970, the same year he was inducted into the Cowboy Artists of America. So, he never was able to participate in their annual show.
