评论: Came to the U.S. in 1890. Technical advisor, Public Works Administration. Position: lecturer, Park Service; teacher, Minneapolis, 1908; Washington State, 1911-15; t., research prof., Univ. Oklahoma, Norman, Okla.,1914-45(?), emeritus, Univ. Oklahoma, 1959. Sponsor of the Five Kiowas," a group of Native American artists that included Spencer Asah, Jack Hokeah, Steven Mopope, Monroe Tsatoke, and Lois Smoky (James Auchiah replaced Smoky after she later dropped out of the program). Through the efforts of Mrs. Susie Peters, a teacher for the Kiowa agency in Anardko, OK, Jacobson and instructor Edith Mahier were made aware of the work being done by these Kiowa artists; Jacobson subsequently arranged for them to come to the university in 1926, providing them with studio space, materials, and guidance from Mahier. Other Kiowa artists followed. The original group became known as the Five Kiowas and quickly attracted int'l. interest when their work was shown at the Prague Expo, 1928. This exhibition included the work of 31 artists from tribes across the United States. Jacobson wrote about the Kiowa artists and continued to support them during the Depression, when he hired them as muralists. He was also a prolific artist himself, painting landscapes (over 500) and Indian genre scenes throughout the West, including Oklahoma, Colorada, New Mexico, Wyoming, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, and California. He also sketched in the Sahara (1925-26). Author: Kiowa Indian Arts (1929) and Am. Indian Painters (1950); co-auth., with Jeanne d'Ucel, Les Peintres Indiens d'Amerique; Costumes Indiens de I'Amerique du Nord; articles for magazines.
