Born in Germantown, Pennsylvania, Anna livecl' 'With her family in Great Britain between 1878 and 1880, where her father's watercolors and oils had gr~ ~t , success. While there, Anna began painting with her father, which she continued to do after the fa ~ 11 Y sd return to the United States. She also attended the Cowles Art School in Boston and in New York ~orke with John LaFarge and William Merritt Chase.

She loved the quieter aspects of nature, depicting it as beautiful and invitr - g. free of harsh and unpleasant realities. Two years after Anna Richard s Brewster's death in 1952, her husband and friends organized a rre ~ orial exhibition of her work at the Museum of the City of New York.
