Canadian artist

Roberts, Goodridge (1904-1974)

A well-known Montreal art teacher and painter, Roberts served in England as an official RCAF war artist from 1943 to 1945. Unlike many of the other Canadian participants in the CWR program, his work from this period has generally been viewed as insignificant to his development as an artist.
