Michael Gorman grew up in the mid-west, back and forth between Texas and Kansas. After a four-and-a-half year tour of duty as a cryptologist in the United States Navy, he studied in the School of Architecture at the University of Kansas at Lawrence, University of California at Berkeley.
Painting all the while, Gorman began to work as a set designer for motion pictures in Los Angeles in 1993. He remains around 1,800 paintings in circulation in Los Angeles and around the world; in addition to numerous prestigious One-Man Shows, he has three times received the Presidential Seal of Approval for Artist of the Year.
