Marguerite Kirmse was born in Bournemouth, England, on 14 December 1885.She studied with Frank Calderon at the Calderon School of Animal Art while also studying the harp in London, England; she spent much of her free time sketching animals at the London Zoo. She arrived in the United States in 1910 intending to support herself as a harpist, but owing to difficulties involved in joining the musicians’ union she was unable to find work. She turned to art as a source of income and found a receptive market. She first tried etching in 1921, and met with such success that most of her work thereafter was in that medium, although she continued to work in oils, watercolors, and pastels. In the late 1920s she turned her hand to sculpture, modeling Dachshund, English pointer, Sealyham terriers, English setter and Scottish terrier breeds; the scotties, in four different poses, were cast in bronze by The Gorham Company of Providence, RI.
