Shepherd, Edith Hawkins
Edith Hawkins Shepherd (June 4, 1918 - May 6, 2007) was an American artist based on Shelter Island, Long Island, New York. We have been able to trace few facts about Shepherd's life. She is listed in the 1980 New York census as living in Patchogue with her husband. At some point she relocated to Cartwright Town on the eastern side of Shelter Island. We have been told by people who knew her that she was a lively and active woman who enjoyed daily swims in Coecles Harbor, near her home, well into her 80s. Shepherd produced just one known map, a pictorial illustration of Shelter Island, first in 1950, with a revised edition in 1966.
