Steven Lasky, Artist

 
Here you can see nearly one hundred graphite portraits that were created by the artist during the years of 2024 and 2025,
twenty-seven of which were displayed as part of a nearly ten-week exhibition at Florida's Weisman Center,
a solo exhibition of graphite portraits (along with some in pastel), which ran from March to June 2025.
The Weisman Center exhibition featured mostly portraits of actors and actresses who once graced the planks of the Yiddish stage.
Included below are more such portraits, as well as portraits of other American actors, actresses, and singers
who have entertained us over these many years ... We are richer for it and thankful for their talents ...

Any or all of the portraits below are available to be shown elsewhere if desired. Just contact steve@museumoffamilyhistory.com.



To see a larger version of each portrait, or to read the descriptive plaque that lies beneath a particular portrait, just click on the photo or plaque.

The aforementioned exhibition was accompanied by a splendid audio tour, which was created by the artist. However, now that the exhibition is over, the audio tour has been discontinued. If there is to be another showing of these works, the audio tour will once again be made available.

You may like to take a look at many of my early works, mostly portraits in pastel, if you'd like.

You can also see nine portraits of members of my family, including several self-portraits.
