Life
Adams was born in Muncie, Indiana, the son of a livestock breeder. His artistic leanings [2] were notably encouraged by his father who, being an amateur artist himself, enrolled Adams in Herron School of Art in Indianapolis. Thereafter, he continued his studies under the guidance of painter William Merritt Chase in Italy (1910) and Robert Henri in Spain (1912).[2] In Italy, he met artist Margaret Graham Burroughs, and they married in 1918.[2]
On returning to the United States from his European studies, Adams opened a studio in Indianapolis, Indiana.[2] He subsequently lived and worked in New York and California.[2]
