Abstract:

Willie Taglieri was a police officer in Manhattan for seven years before becoming an artist in 1958. Last year, the Kellenberger Foundation and the Craven and Jones County Art Councils put together a grant for Taglieri to pant a scaled-down mural in a former bank building in downtown New Bern. Taglieri is currently working on the full-scale mural in the courthouse and hopes to have it completed by May.
