Richard T. Brady was born in Elizabeth, New Jersey. He studied at the Newark School of Fine Arts and at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Firenze. He was profoundly influenced by the near decade he spent living, studying, working and traveling in Italy. The Italian experience shaped him as an artist, providing him with a classical education and an intimate knowledge of the Italian tradition. Additionally, he traveled extensively in the Mid East and Asia before returning to the U.S. New York City became home base. He immersed himself in printmaking at Robert Blackburn’s Printmaking workshop, receiving the Jerome Foundation Fellowship in printmaking. He continued his travels, traversing the United States several times including a seven month sojourn at the Museum of Natural History’s Research Station in Arizona as a naturalist, painting and drawing among the scientists.
