Ruth Kligman

Ruth Kligman

Ruth Kligman is most commonly known as the girlfriend of several important American artists of the mid 20th century (Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning).

De Kooning named a painting for Kligman ("Ruth's Zowie"), and she was the sole survivor of the car crash that killed Pollock.

She published a book, "Love Affair: A Memoir of Jackson Pollock" about her relationship with Pollock. In Ed Harris's 2000 film "Pollock", Kligman was played by actress Jennifer Connelly.

Kligman is an artist in her own right, and as of 2008 is still creating new work and living in New York City. Her works include "Joan of Arc" and the "Light and Demon" series.
