Bill Botzow is an artist born in New York City in 1945. He received a private education through primary, secondary, and college levels, earning a degree in Art and Archaeology. His early career included living and working in Lower Manhattan and East Harlem, followed by several years in Odd, West Virginia.

From the late 1970s onward, he moved across the United States—including West Virginia, Vermont, Arizona, Oregon, Montana, and Colorado—before settling in Pownal, Vermont, in 1982. Over the course of more than five decades, he has worked in a wide range of rural jobs, volunteered with numerous organizations, and served in the legislature.
