Timeline
Edith Wyle died from cancer in October 1999, age 81.
The Edith R. Wyle Research Library of the Craft and Folk Art Museum, now housed at LACMA, was named in her honor in 1995.
In connection with her museum work, Edith Wyle conceived of the Festival of Masks in 1976, a multicultural parade and arts celebration. Wyle also worked on arts events during the 1984 Summer Olympics, and served on the board at California Institute of the Arts (CalArts). She was the author of several exhibition catalogs.
In 1973, the gallery and cafe became the Craft and Folk Art Museum (and the café took on the name of the gallery, The Egg and The Eye). Wyle was program director of the museum until 1984 when she retired, taking the title of Founder/Director Emeritus and going on the Board. Wyle refused to allow a merger with LACMA in 1997 and, always struggling financially, the museum closed for 14 months. She lived to see the museum reopened under the auspices of the Los Angeles Cultural Affairs Department.
In 1965, Edith Wyle opened The Egg and the Eye, a commercial gallery and café on Wilshire Boulevard, across from the La Brea Tar Pits and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). Describing the gallery's founding, she told the Los Angeles Times:
Edith Robinson married Frank S. Wyle in 1942. They had three children together: Nancy Wyle Romero (mother of artist Sonia Romero), Stephen Wyle (father of actor Noah Wyle), and Diana Munk.
As a young wife and mother in the 1940s, Edith Wyle returned to painting, and studied with the painter and sculptor Rico Lebrun, who encouraged her particular interest in folk arts. Through adulthood she continued to take classes in various media, including weaving and pottery.
Edith Robinson Wyle (April 21, 1918 – October 12, 1999) was an American artist and arts patron, founder of the Craft and Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles.
Edith Robinson was born in San Francisco in 1918, the daughter of Rose and Louis Robinson. Her grandparents were Jewish emigrants from Eastern Europe. Her parents were professional musicians, but her father also trained as a dentist. Edith moved to Los Angeles with her parents when she was six years old. As a girl she studied art, music, and dance. She earned a degree in English at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), and worked as a secretary before she married.
