Sam Middleton left his native Harlem in New York City to travel the world in the merchant marine. Still a wanderer in the mid-1950s, he was gaining recognition abroad as a serious and talented visual artist. Like many American blacks before him, Middleton found some comfort circulating in societies less racially sensitive than the United States. As a result, he became an expatriate and built his career while living in Amsterdam. Middleton has received international critical acclaim for over fifty years. In the United States his works are exhibited in New York's Whitney Museum, at Howard University in Washington, D.C. and at Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee.
