	Tom Roberts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Thomas William Roberts (8 March 1856 - 14 September 1931), usually known simply as Tom, was a famous Australian artist and a key member of the Heidelberg School.
		Roberts painted a considerable number of fine oil landscapes and portraits, some painted at artist camps with his friend McCubbin, but perhaps his most famous works were two large works, Shearing the Rams and The Big Picture.
		Many of Roberts' paintings were landscapes or ideas done on small canvases that he did very quickly, such as his exhibits to the famous 9 x 5 exhibition in Melbourne, 9 x 5 referring to the size in inches of the cigar box lids which most of the paintings were done on.

		Tom Roberts, a native of Pittsburgh, PA, is regarded by many as one of the finest pianists today in the exciting Harlem stride piano style.
		Tom Roberts' excellent and comprehensive CD notes point out Luckey Roberts' accomplishments: the first Harlem pianist to be published--1913--and recorded--1916--and the composer of more than a dozen musical comedies beginning in 1911, several big band era hits, and symphonic works that were introduced at Carnegie Hall and Town Hall in New York City.
		Tom Roberts is one of the top ragtime and Harlem-style piano players around today and must be congratulated for this very exciting recording of the wonderful music of Luckey Roberts, who has unfortunately been somewhat neglected for years.

	American National Business Hall of Fame, ANBHF Tom Roberts Sr.
		Roberts’ unquestioning faith in the value of hybrid corn to corn-belt farmers, his determination to let nothing stand in the way of bringing the new corn to just as many farmers just as soon as possible was, from the first season in 1934 without a close parallel anywhere in the history of hybrid corn.
		Roberts’ understanding of the farmers’ basic needs led him to “position” hybrid corn as the new “mortgage lifter.” This was, of course, symbolized by the wings attached to the ear of a corn.
		Tom Roberts idea from the first was that the dealer should be a farmer, who made direct calls on his neighbors rather than a seed store or elevator operator who waited for customers to call on him.

	TOM ROBERTS
		The toast that Tom Roberts proposed to “Our National Defences” at the 1888 dinner of the Victorian Artists Society is early evidence of his fascination with military affairs.
		These instructions were indicative of the care that Roberts had taken in the application of a palette playing the fawn of fabrics against fl boots and plumes.
		Roberts looked both back to the memories of the bushrangers in “Bailed Up” (1895) and forward to the dawn of the Federation which culminated in the 250 portrait heads of “The Opening of the Federal Parliament”.

	ArtLex on the Heidelberg School
		Heavily influenced by French Impressionism, Roberts believed that it offered the direction for an authentically Australian painting style.The group often met in the Australian bush near Heidelberg, Victoria, for a series of "camps" between 1887 and 1890.
		First gaining recognition at an exhibition in Melbourne in 1889, the Heidelberg school was viewed as a direct challenge to the prevailing trend in Australian art, which was characteristically very polished and dark in color.
		Roberts was greatly influenced by the Naturalist - Impressionist painter Jules Bastien-Lepage.

	Which Democrats vote 'yes' on Roberts? - Tom Curry - MSNBC.com
		If he is confirmed, Brigham predicted, “Roberts is going to have a chance to hand down some serious decisions before the 2008 presidential race heats up.
		And it is not as if the Democrats have much leverage over the choice of the next nominee: Bush can listen politely to their suggestions, but need not nominate a "moderate" such as O'Connor in order to get his nominee confirmed.
		Roberts said that Roe was a precedent “entitled to respect under principles of stare decisis,” which means it could be overturned if the constitutional foundations of the ruling “had been eroded by subsequent developments.”

		Tom Roberts supported his family by working at the same job for forty-six years-first as a truck driver and then as a supervisor for the Driveway Company, Inc., a paving concern.
		(Roberts family lore has it that somewhere in the past, a Cherokee entered their gene pool.) Although he hadn't been particularly athletic as a boy, his frame was lean and solid.
		Tom wanted him to join the paving business, or at least get a similar good, steady job that would help him support a family and live the kind of rock-solid life his parents had enjoyed for twenty years.

	TOM ROBERTS
		Although Marvellous Melbourne had become one of the world’s great metropolises, Roberts disparaged its architecture as “expensive vulgarity”, wrapped in styles as borrowed as the capital that built them.
		The small scale of this work for so large a subject suggests that it was a draft for a larger and more sharply delineated work which Roberts had hoped to send to the 1886 Colonial and Indian Exhibition in London.
		Unable to find a buyer, Roberts handed the canvas in 1903 to Fred McCubbin, whose widow sold it to the Commonwealth Parliamentary Library in 1920 for 20 guineas, which she forwarded to Roberts in London.
