Second Career

edit

Nell Painter has had a significant career as an artist upon retirement. She has several works in permanent collections across the US. Her wikipage should be updated to reflect this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fr33labour (talkcontribs) 15:00, 9 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Name

I have read Dr. Painter, and learned a lot from her. I know a stub like this cannot cover everything, but I sure wish it included an explanation of her surname. Was she married to a Mr. Painter? Did she pick it and add it on just to sound different? No clue is given. Unschool 05:56, 11 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

According to Encyclopedia.com: She married Glenn R. Shafer, a professor of business, in 1989. An earlier marriage to Colin Painter, a teacher of linguistics, ended in divorce. I'm sure there are other sources but this was the first I found that answered the question. Allreet (talk) 12:05, 18 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
