Walter E. BohlWalter Bohl was born in Wisconsin and worked for the Illinois Bell Telephone Co. in Chicago. While convalesing from a serious illness which forced him to leave the telephone company he began drawing in pen and ink. The Marshall Fields Gallery liked his work and suggested he take up etching. Basically self-taught with no formal art training, Bohl, and his wife left for Arizona, where he gained national recognition for his art work pertaining to wildlife and outdoor scenes from Esquire magazine. This popular magazine featured his etchings and water colors from the years, 1934 to 1943. His work is represented in the National Gallery, Washington, D.C. University of Wisconsin, and in many private institutions in Mexico, Canada, and Europe. Bohl did the tenth Federal Duck Stamp, Wood Ducks in 1943.
