Jo Davidson (1883 – 1952) was a renowned American sculptor specializing in realistic human busts and statues, starting with clay and then cast in terra-cotta or bronze, or carved from marble. He created life sized scultures of many of the iconic personalities of his time, including Walt Whitman and Gertrude Stein.
