William T. Wiley's fun-loving imagery is wholly original and masterfully drafted. Often containing self-portraits of himself as a jester, Wiley's work gently critiques American culture and politics.

William T. Wiley was born in Bedford, Indiana in 1937. He earned a BFA and an MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute, and taught at the University of California, Davis until 1973. The Walker Art Center, Minneapolis organized a retrospective of Wiley's work in 1979.
