Alfred Everett Orr was a distinguished painter born on January 6, 1886, in New York City.

Orr's career saw him active in the San Gabriel Valley, California, between 1918 and 1925. After his time in California, he moved to London, where he took residence in the former studio of the renowned artist John Singer Sargent.

Orr's work gained the financial backing of Sir Charles Higham, a notable figure in the English advertising world, who spoke highly of Orr's talent. In addition to his other artistic contributions, Alfred E. Orr created six cover illustrations for "The Saturday Evening Post," a testament to his commercial and artistic success.
