About Malcolm Baroway
 As a youth, Malcolm Baroway was accepted to New York City's pre-professional High School of Music and Art and was "supposed to become" an artist. Instead he became a writer and public relations executive who, in collaborating with artists over a 40 year career, eventually decided to "do it myself." While his first solo show was not until 2001, since then his work has been placed in more than 100 collections from coast to coast as he has been named to the worldwide Landscape Artists International, the American Impressionist Society, Oil Painters of America, and the Ohio Art League. One piece, "And the Last Child Leaves," was recently hung in Ohio State University's Longaberger Alumni House along with works by alumni George Bellows and Roy Lichtenstein.
Since the millennium, Malcolm has had six solo shows in his hometown, Columbus, Ohio, including Ohio State University's Faculty Club Gallery, the Roy G Biv Gallery, and four at the prestigious Sharon Weiss Gallery. His work also is carried at Boulder’s SmithKlein Gallery, one of the premier art venues in Colorado, where he had his first solo show in the winter of 2009-2010 and where his work is now on permanent display. Malcolm tries to do one solo show per year. In 2008, it was in Asheville, North Carolina's Studio B. His 2009 Sharon Weiss show was the most successful solo exhibition in the 17 year history of the gallery, and his next is scheduled for July 2011. His work also has been featured on the international blog "All the Best by Ronda Carmen" as a "Passport to Stylish Living."
His major influences, he says, "are all the genres that appeared in Europe from the 1880s through the 1930s." With two liberal arts degrees from The Johns Hopkins University, and art training at Ohio Wesleyan University and the Columbus College of Art and Design, his "finest teachers" he says, "are the museums I have visited and the art books I own."
Baroway is a native of Flushing, New York and is married to the former Dolores (Dee) Renfro of Newark, New Jersey. They reside at 421 Brookside Drive, Columbus, Ohio 43209. Between them, as a blended family, they have had nine children and nine grandchildren. Malcolm's three children, Scott, Holly, and Tammy all live in Denver with their families, including grandchildren Matt , Katie, Maya, and Ella.
