Sheryl Fiegel

Sheryl Fiegel is an art historian with a BA degree in Art History and an MA degree in Fine Arts (Art History) from Tufts University. She has had a varied career, including gallerist, fine art appraiser (ASA), independent curator and corporate art advisor. She served as head of the Air Force Art Collection, during which time she organized a five-day multi-service tribute to honor the combat artists who served in uniform during World War II. This was done under the auspices of the 50th Anniversary of the World War II Commemoration Committee. It was through her research on this project that Fiegel first came into contact with the work of Clayton Knight and William Heaslip. Her husband, John, is a retired Air Force officer, and her late father-in-law was the commanding officer of the 93rd Bomb Group of the Mighty Eighth Air Force during World War II. Her collection of fine art prints from World War II was recently exhibited at the Cosmos Club in Washington, DC.
