Robert L. Mickool was born in Fall River, MA in 1934. He has spent a lifetime pursuing his love of art, however, his first passion was baseball which led to a professional AA contract with the Milwaukee Braves in 1954. Sadly, an injury curtailed his baseball career limiting his time professionally to one year. Mickool returned to Fall River to attend Bradford Durfee Technical College. He was strongly convinced by the newly appointed fashion instructor, Gerta Rello, to become a fashion illustrator. Mickool was introduced to and greatly inspired by the art of Lord & Taylor’s Dorothy Hood. His passion was fueled and it was clear that art would become a lifetime pursuit. Resides in Stratford
