Artist Julie Green is best remembered for their long-running series The Last Supper, consisting of plates illustrated with the final meal request of over 1000 death row inmates before their executions. Green earned a BFA and MFA from the University of Kansas in the 1980s and 90s, taking particular inspiration from their professor and mentor Roger Shimomura. Green took a teaching position at the University of Oklahoma in 1997, and then taught at Oregon State University from 2000 through their final years. Green's 2021 passing was announced in publications ranging from the Smithsonian Magazine to the New York Times. Today, Julie Green's The Last Supper is held in the collection of the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.
