Fannie C. Burr

FANNIE C. BURR

(1858-1931)

Fannie Burr was born in Monroe, Connecticut and the elder of the Burr sisters. Her father, James, was once a prosperous fruit farmer and one of a large family that counted among its antecedents the notorious Aaron Burr. Fannie showed artistic talent as a child and studied at the Yale School of Fine Arts and later at the Art Students League in New York City. She made a living as a portraitist but was often needed back at the farm. No less precocious than her sister, the younger Jennie followed in Fannie’s footsteps and tried her hand at painting. The challenges of farm life exacerbated by family strife and financial problems kept the Burr sisters from attaining the level of recognition many art historians believe they deserved. After Fannie died, in 1931, Jennie stopped painting to become a recluse until her own death in 1961. A critic described Fannie’s work as “having a touch of the Surreal.”

Biography

Burr had a varied career (he had been the publicity agent for Lola Montez, the former mistress of Ludwig I of Bavaria) and is credited with having written her autobiography. At some point he acquired the title "Reverend", though scholars do not know how. Jay Hubbell, writing in Publications of the Modern Language Association, remarks that even his birth and death dates are uncertain.^[2] The authors of A general history of the Burr family note that their questionnaire was not returned; they did know, apparently, that he was a well-known lecturer and had published a newspaper in Hoboken, New Jersey, called the Hudson Co.
