Book excerpt: Born in Alton, New York, Cyrus Leroy Baldridge became a noted illustrator, set designer, and painter of Southwestern desert and mountain landscapes. During his childhood, his family moved frequently, but he received art training from age ten, first studying with famous newspaper illustrator Frank Holme. He earned a degree in English Literature from the University of Chicago and then took a commercial art job as a field artist during World War I. He began sketching at the battle fronts of World War I, first as a freelance artist and then for Stars & Stripes. After the war, he traveled across three continents, spending time in Africa, China, India, Japan, Korea, the Middle East and Europe. He illustrated numerous books, including those of his wife, Caroline Singer. His works range from sketches and engravings to watercolors and portraits of the famous. In the 1940s, Cyrus Baldridge illustrated more than one hundred books and magazine articles and, in 1947, he wrote an autobiography: Time and Chance. The book is both splendidly written and lavishly illustrated. It was quite successful, being listed on the New York Times best seller list for months. Profits from Time and Chance, combined with several years of earnings from well-paid work with the Information Please Almanac, made it possible for him and Caroline to retire to Santa Fe, New Mexico in 1951. There they lived simply in a small adobe house among like-minded free-spirits.
