Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Roberto Gari (February 13, 1920 - January 22, 2008) was an American artist and actor. He was born in Brooklyn and appeared in vaudeville under the name of Jackie Hayes from the age of 4. In 1939 Gari enrolled and studied at the Art Students League of New York under the auspices of such renowned instructors as Will Barnet and Ethel Schwabacher. Gari worked with oil on canvas, watercolor, charcoal, pastels, and pen and ink. His subjects were usually portraits, in Impressionist or Modernist style. He became a respected artist with numerous exhibitions in such galleries as the Bodley Gallery in NYC and the Raymond Burr and Acosta galleries in Beverly Hills. His paintings have been collected by such stars as Shelley Winters, Steve Allen, Debbie Reynolds, Eddie Fisher, Eddie Cantor and former President Ronald Reagan (who hung his Gari painting in the White House). His painting of singer Judy Garland was on display in the lobby of New York''s Palace Theatre for many years and now hangs in the Theatre Collection of the Museum of the City of New York.
