Dorothy Grafly (later Drummond) (July 29, 1896 – November 13, 1980) was an American journalist, art critic, author, curator and philanthrophist. Grafly wrote extensively for a wide variety of newspapers and magazines, and was described in Time magazine as "the ablest art critic in the city" of Philadelphia.[1] Her book A History of the Philadelphia Print Club appeared in 1929.[2][3]
She served as the editor of Art Outlook (1943–1949) and the publisher and editor of Art in Focus (1949–1980).[4][5]
From 1932 to 1945, Grafly was curator at the Drexel Museum and Picture Gallery.[6]
In 1996, her biographical memoir of her father, sculptor Charles Grafly, was published along with an exhibition catalog, The sculptor's clay: Charles Grafly, 1862–1929, celebrating his studio collection which Grafly and her husband had donated to the Edwin A. Ulrich Museum of Art, Wichita State University.[7][8]
