Henry Miller (American 1891-1980)Attributed: Untitled - Tangled Figures Print on paper artist signature in blue marker lower right also inscribed To Nicky X'mas - 1970 in blue marker. Nicky Blair was a Hollywood actor and restauranteur and friend of Henry Miller. Unframed.

Though Nicky Blair claimed to have small parts in more than 100 movies he was best-known for the two Hollywood restaurants that carried his name in the '70s and '80s. The restaurants grew out of his friendship with a gamut of stars ranging from old Hollywood icons such as Edward G. Robinson to Clint Eastwood who celebrated his 1993 Academy Award for Unforgiven at Blair's restaurant on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles.

It started in the '50s when I used to cook dinners for all the big stars at his house in Laurel Canyon Blair told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Author Henry Miller was the conduit. He was a good friend of mine. Everyone wanted to meet him so through him I met everybody.
