The bit about "American Fine Art Editions, Inc" seems almost like an advertisement, minus only a link to their webpage. Still I'm a bit hesitant to remove it on my own accord. Anyone have thoughts? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.139.71.69 (talkcontribs) 11 July 2006

I know what you mean. I decided not to remove it only because if we cut it back to Scottsdale, Arizona, it ceases to be informative, in the sense that a person who would like to see the collection to learn more about the artist's work then has to go investigate independently. The one thing I would want to do is verify, which I'll go do in a minute. (It was interesting to learn that the print I picked for my room as a child is of one of his most desirable works!) —Lawikitejana 18:44, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Where in New York?

[edit]

The "Personal Life" section seems to be describing residence in a particular building with this text: "Made up of double-height rooms that overlook Central Park, this exclusive New York City landmark was originally intended for painters. Norman Rockwell once lived there...". However, no building name or locale other than "New York City" is mentioned specifically. As a result, this section is ambiguous.

Painting gallery in article

[edit]

...is what this article needs. There's only one painting shown. Is there some kind of copyright issue with showing some other paintings he's created? There need to be more shown in this article. --76.115.67.114 (talk) 09:47, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Birthplace

[edit]

It appears there is some inconsistency about Neiman's birthplace. A recent Pioneer Press article on his autobiography suggests St. Paul and Duluth as two possible locations. A recent contributor to the article asserts "changed place of birth from St. Paul, Minnesota to Braham, Isanti County, Minnesota, based on birth records for Minnesota." Citations would be good of secondary sources that have published that as a birth location.--Larrybob (talk) 23:25, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Thanks n the 1997 George Clooney / Nicole Kidman movie “The Peacemaker” George Clooney’s character states that he is a fan of Leroy Neimus’ work. 96.241.229.114 (talk) 02:27, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
