Paul Thiebaud, American art dealer (d. 2010)
Paul Thiebaud (October 10, 1960 – June 19, 2010) was an American art dealer who owned two influential galleries, one in New York City and the other in San Francisco [1]. He exhibited the work of a host of lesser known artists whom he felt it was his role to bring to a wider public audience, in addition to the work of his father, the noted pop painter Wayne Thiebaud.
His elder sister is the actress, model and writer Twinka Thiebaud, his mother Betty is a filmmaker, and his brother Matthew is an artist as well. He had a wife, Karen, and two daughters when he died of colon cancer at the age of 49.
