Graham
and her sculptor husband, Steph Davidson, died on September 1, 2003,
from injuries sustained in a car accident on a highway near
Pennsylvania, while returning from a craft show. Graham was pregnant
with their first child. They lived in North Bennington, Vermont. Graham Scarborough was an
exhibiting artist in Audart's "TNT" exhibition in
the Spring of 1996. Twelve of her paintings and collages were shipped
to New York for the show. Graham, who had previously been
criticized
in the Texas press for showing paintings that contained nudity, was now
receiving accolades from the same newspaper, for having her first
exhibition
in New York City. Graham
traveled from Texas to New York for the opening reception
of "TNT" and arrived at the Audart Gallery filled with enthusiasm. The
afternoon of the opening was busy but Graham was there, offering to
help
with everything. She arranged the cheese table, insisting that I
rest, and she did it in a most artistic way. Before leaving the
gallery
to get ready for the evening ahead, she made sure everything was under
control. Audrey
