Harry Mills Walcott

[3] Walcott was artistically talented and he attended the School of the National Academy of Design, where he studied under Will H. Low and received a classical French Atelier Style education.

Before the Walcott's late marriage (they were both thirty-five) she had won the prestigious Hallgarten Price at the Annual Exhibition of the National Academy of Design in 1903.

Showing the esteem he must have been held at the time, in 1907 he was on the jury for the Art Institute's Annual Exhibition of American Painting and Sculpture with William Merritt Chase, Joseph DeCamp, Daniel Garber and J. Francis Murphy.

[10] He won a medal at the 1915 Panama–Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco, the World's Fair that celebrated the rebirth of the city after the 1906 earthquake and fire.

[11] Walcott had a winter home in California late in his life, where at least one of his siblings had settled[12] and he died in San Diego, on Coronado Island.
