(Bob Ross: Happy Accidents, Betrayal & Greed, 2021)

This is a bibliographic telling of the life of Bob Ross. It tells the story of his time fighting in the war to transitioning to his artistic career. The battle for his business and everything that came with it.

Reason for Inclusion

Bob Ross is a figure that is popular among teens. I have seen libraries do several Bob Ross paint nights for teen programming. This documentary would be something the teens are interested in as well as they would learn more about who Bob Ross was and why he matters. This is an important inclusion into my art history library curation.

The library could hold a Bob Ross painting night. There are several free tutorial that the library could use.
