The following is from Stephanie Strass
Annie Snyder was born in Salona, Pennsylvania, in 1852. She had little art
education other than some early instruction in Salona and in Philadelphia under Emil Kett, from Nuremberg, Germany. She struggled to make a living from art all her life and, at one point, was peddling raffle tickets for her paintings door to door. She lived for a time in Philadelphia but eventually returned to Salona and then Lock Haven, Pennsylvania, by 1893, where she spent the rest of her life.
