MAX D. WEAVER

1917-2012
BiographyGael Lindstrom left a position at Cedar City¿s College of Southern Utah (SUU) to take a new post at Utah State Agricultural College (USU) in Logan. A northern Utah artist, the printmaker and painter Max Dickson Weaver of Layton, Utah--who earned a B.S. (1939) and M.S. (1955) from Utah State, with a thesis on Calvin Fletcher's (q.v.) work--departed Logan to replace Lindstrom in Cedar City. A "first place graphics" winner at both the 1955 Utah State Fair and the 1958 Utah Art Institute (UAC) competition, Weaver had previously taught at Helper (Utah) Junior High School (1939-41), Cyprus High School in Magna, Utah (1941-42), and Logan High School (1946-57). His stay at the College of Southern Utah was four years in duration (1957-61), after which he was appointed to the faculty of the Department of Art at Brigham Young University (now emeritus). He has been an oil painter, printmaker, and ceramist. (b. March 14)
