Collected with her engineer husband Henry J. Brunnier. Ann Weideman was born in Lincoln, Nebraska, in 1885 and she married Henry Brunnier in 1905. The Brunniers became interested in art and acquired many pieces of ceramic, glassware, enamelware, jade and ivory throughout their travels overseas. Ann also collected rare dolls from every country they visited. She was a member of the Golden Gate Collectors Club, the San Francisco Doll Club, the Stanford Art Society, and the Metropolitan Art Museum. In 1963, the Brunniers donated their art collection to Iowa State University. Their donation is now part of the permanent collection of the Brunnier Art Museum at Iowa State University. |
