(1933 - ) Robert Jekyll was born in Montreal, Quebec in 1933 and moved to London, England at the age of 16. He returned to Canada and obtained his BA from York University in 1972. He returned to England to study and apprentice in art and architectural stained glass for two years with Patrick Reyntiens at Burleighfield House, in Loudwater, Buckinghamshire and came back in 1974 to set up his first studio in Toronto. He started work on commissions almost immediately and was soon engaged by Sheridan College to establish a stained glass class. Jekyll has been closely associated with the development of stained glass in Canada and, in 1975, was founding President of Artists in Stained Glass. He has been connected with the visual art, craft and design movements in Canada for many years, serving on the boards of the Ontario Crafts Council (President 1998-2000), Visual Arts Ontario (Chair 1983-86), Design Exchange (founding board member), Canadian Society of Decorative Arts (National Council 1983-84), and the Canadian Crafts Federation / Fédération canadienne des métiers d'art (founding President 1999-2003). Jekyll's stained glass work has been included in exhibitions throughout Canada and is represented in major collections. His commissioned works are also found in numerous public buildings and private residences. He has been twice nominated for the Saidye Bronfman Award for Excellence in Craft and for the Governor General's Award in Visual and Media Arts. In 2010 Jekyll was elected to the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts. Also in that year he was awarded the Keith Kelly Award for cultural leadership by the Canadian Conference of the Arts.
