Historia
William "Bill" Henry Spurlock II was born October 1945 in Chicago, Illinois, son of William Spurlock, Sr., and Anne Spurlock. His family moved to the San Antonio area around 1956, and his father operated the Ben Franklin Store in Schertz. Spurlock graduated from Robert E. Lee High School, and from Trinity University in 1970 with a BA. He studied under Professor Bill Bristow during his time at Trinity. Spurlock went on to earn a Master's degree in Modern Art from the University of New Mexico in 1974, and a Doctorate in Contemporary Art and Museology from the Union Graduate School in Yellow Springs, Ohio.
Spurlock's career in art took him across the country, including time spent as a professor at the University of Texas Arlington, Director of University Art Galleries at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, and Curator of Exhibitions and Contemporary Art at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art in California.
He died May 28, 2013, in Fort Worth, Texas.
