LeRoy Neiman, the painter and sketch artist was best known for evoking the kinetic energy of the world’s biggest sporting and leisure events with bright quick strokes. Neiman's easily recognized style was known for his brilliantly colored, expressionist paintings and screen prints of athletes, musicians, and sporting events. Neiman also was a contributing artist at Playboy magazine for many years and official painter of five Olympiads. Neiman was a media-savvy artist who knew how to enthrall audiences with his instant renditions of what he observed. In 1972, he sketched the world chess tournament between Boris Spassky and Bobby Fischer in Reykjavik, Iceland, for a live television audience. He also produced live drawings of the Olympics for TV and was the official computer artist of the Super Bowl for CBS. One face he recorded over and over again was that of Muhammad Ali. Those painting and sketches, representing 15 years of the prizefighter’s professional life permanently reside at the LeRoy Neiman Gallery at the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, Kentucky. Today fans can visit the grave of artist LeRoy Neiman at Woodlawn Cemetery in the Bronx, NYC.

$The Original Tombstone Tourist visits the grave of baseball legend Tony Conigliaro Check out The Original Tombstone Tourist website at https://thetombstonetourist.com/graves/grave-tony-conigliaro-holy-cross-cemetery/ for the complete biography and more exciting content! The man the fans called ″Tony C″ was, at age 22, the youngest major league player to hit 100 career home runs. He was probably most widely known, however, for the beaning that tragically cost him his career. On Aug. 18, 1967, during a game with the California Angels, a pitch by Jack Hamilton hit Conigliaro on the left side of the face, leaving him with a fractured cheekbone, a dislocated jaw and blurred vision. Tony Conigliaro, whose brilliant baseball career was cut short when he was hit in the face by a pitched ball at age 22, died of kidney failure at age 45 after spending 8 years in a coma. #famousgraves #gravesite #grave #cemetery #cemeterylovers #baseballhalloffame$
