He received his education from Carnegie Institute of Technology (later Carnegie Mellon CFA) where he studied under Arthur Watson Sparks and A. V. Churchill.
He eventually became a member of the faculty and was the founder of the American Industrial Design Department which was renamed the Department of Pictorial Design in 1944; where for a short time he was the acting head of the faculty. He taught drawing and lithography/printmaking classes, and one of his famous pupils was Andy Warhol.

Much of his work during this time was dedicated to producing images of the local Colorado landscape and mining towns of the San Juan Mountains and vicinity.
