Ellis, Vivian

The papers of New Orleans-born, self-taught artist Vivian Ellis include catalogs, posters, brochures and other printed ephemera about exhibits, both individual and group, in which Ellis has been included. Most of the items are in German, and many of the exhibits opened in Germany where the artist resides and works as a military nurse. Additional materials include photographs of Ellis' father, Reverend Aaron Ellis, former pastor of the Greater Rose Hill Baptist Church in New Orleans
