Harrison Fisher, born around 1875 in Brooklyn, New York City, began drawing at an early age and launched his illustration career in 1898 with the *San Francisco Call* and the *San Francisco Examiner*, becoming renowned for his captivating portraits of women that earned him acclaim as the successor to Charles Dana Gibson.
He regularly contributed cover art to *Cosmopolitan* magazine until his death in 1934 and, alongside fellow artists Howard Chandler Christy and Neysa McMein, served on the “Fame and Fortune” contest jury in the early 1920s, where they discovered the “It-girl” Clara Bow.
