Cleveland native and longtime resident of Akron, S. Sgt. Jacob John de Vries served in the US Army 103rd Infantry (Cactus) Division in Europe and First Allied Airborne Army occupying forces in Berlin. Even before his formal art training at Cleveland School of Art, de Vries was always sketching, including during his four years in the Army. This program explores a World War II story through his sketches of people, landscapes and churches in France, Austria and Germany in 1944-45. The storyteller is John’s daughter Janet, who grew up in Akron and now lives in Casper, Wyoming.
