Description
Burbank was troubled with manic depression most of his adult life. In 1917, he moved to San Francisco and was an outpatient at Napa State Hospital until 1934. Burbank continued to provide illustrations to the San Francisco Chronicle, and sent sketches and prints to famous personalities. His richly illustrated autobiography, Burbank Among the Indian as told to Ernest Royce was published in 1944. He was killed in a cable car accident in 1949.
