  • Biography

    The following is a note from Sara Macdonald (July 2025:

    I was a librarian in charge of the archives at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA, from 1987-2020, and answered a lot of questions about alumni, one of whom is Stanley L. Reckless (1892-1955), born as Stanley Zbytniewski.

    Zbytniewski attended the Pennsylvania Museum School of Industrial Art (PMSIA) in 1909-10 and in 1910-11. An illustration of his was also selected for the cover of the October 1911 (v. 9, no. 36) Bulletin of the Pennsylvania Museum. Thus his art education began at the Pennsylvania Museum School of Industrial Art and continued at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
