Cherry was was born in Dallas Texas in 1901. She studied at the Art Student's League and Grand Central School in New York City. She was also taught by Robert Brackman.
Huldah began her career in the 1940s. From 1934-1949 she was represented by the noted New York art dealer and collector, Howard Young. In the 1950s,
the Charles Lock Galleries of New York also exhibited her work. In 1975
Wally Findlay Galleries in New York presented her first one-woman show.
Four of her works were purchased by the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. Her paintings have been reproduced by the New York Graphics Society since
1946 and by Hallmark cards since 1953.
Huldah has had her paintings selected for the Grand Salon of the Salon des
Artisted Francais in Paris. She won Honorable Mention awards on the Salons
of 1948 and 1967.
For her subject matter, she focused on turn-of-the-century women and adolescent girls. Her young ladies are costumed in the fashionable attire of the period, and her style hints of impressionism with a strong Renoir influence. Inspired by a period known as La Belle Epoque, Huldah's designs were incorporated into thirty-one collectible porcelain works of art which were created between 1959 and 1968 and distributed into the 1980s.
She is listed in "Who's Who in American Art", "Who's Who of American Women" and the "World Who's Who of Women".
In addition to museums, her paintings are in the collections of the Cornell Medical Center, and in the Los Angeles Athletic Club. And in 1998 the national Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington DC recognized Huldah and has included her work in their permanent collection. -
