BIOGRAPHY: Lois Davis was born in La Porte, Indiana, in 1924. She was married for 58 years to her late husband, fellow artist Harry A. Davis. After graduating from La Porte High School, Lois received a scholarship to study at the John Herron Art Institute, where she studied for five years. She met Harry there in 1947, when she was a student and he was a teacher (although not hers). They married on December 20, 1947, after a three-month artistic study in Mexico made possible by receipt of the Millikan Award, and had two children, Joanna Ingrid Davis Marks, born April 25, 1949, and Mark Frederick Davis, born February 16, 1959. Lois and Harry first lived in Brownsburg, where she taught grade school, before the couple later settled in Broad Ripple, where they shared a home and lived for the next 40 years.
