Born	1940
Notes	Robert Summers grew up in Texas and worked as a technical illustrator after taking correspondence courses in art.

He is known for his attention to detaila nd the authenticity of his imagery. He also accepts commissions to create monumental sculpture for public places. His most significant public project is Pioneer Plaza, a spectucular sculptural group that recreates a 19th Century trail drive with three riders on horseback and almost sixty longhorn steer. The setting is a four acre park with an artificial waterfall and stream in front of the Dallas Convention Center.
