Keith Haring was born on May 4, 1958, in Reading,Pennsylvania. He developed a love for drawing at a very early age, learning basic cartooning skills from his father and from the popular culture around him, such as Walt Disney.
Upon graduation from high school in 1976, Haring enrolled in the Ivy School of Professional Art in Pittsburgh, a comercial arts school. He soon realized that he had Little interest in becoming a commercial graphic artist and, after two semesters, dropped out.
Haring continued to study and work on his own and in 1978 had a solo exhibition of his work at the Pittsburgh Arts and Crafts Center.
He moved to NEW YORK CITY in 1978 and began using the city as his canvas, making chalk drawings in subway stations. His art was eventually seen everywhere from public murals and museums around the world.
