Marian Spore Bush (born Flora May Spore, October 22, 1878 – February 24, 1946) was a dentist, painter, and wife of industrial tycoon Irving T.
Bush.
She left her successful Michigan dental practice for a studio in Greenwich Village, New York City, and became a self-taught painter in the 1920s.
She claimed her large surrealistic works were inspired by long-dead artists who were communicating with her from "beyond the veil." Her predictions of the future, her unusual artwork, her work with the poor in New York City's Bowery, and her late life marriage to Bush incited much interest in the national press.
