Grace Greenwood Ames (born Brooklyn, January 15, 1905 – died New York City, July 21, 1979)[1][2] was an American artist and social realism muralist. She worked in Mexico on murals alongside historical artists.
When she married, rather than dropping her maiden name she added her husband's surname Ames on to the end of her name, and called herself variously 'Grace Greenwood', 'Grace Ames', or (as she has become known) 'Grace Greenwood Ames'.[3] Later in life she went by 'Grace Crampton', her second husband's last name.[4][5]
