Aaron Douglas (May 26, 1900 – February 3, 1979) was a U.S. painter and a major figure in the Harlem Renaissance.
A native of Topeka, Kansas, Douglas received his B.F.A. degree from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 1922.
He based his style on traditional African styles and broke down figures into geometric objects.
Douglas was often called the "Father of African-American art."
