Early Arensmas

These are the earliest records we have of the Arensma family.

John Arensma Nov 30, 1896 - Dec 1985 Laguna Hills, California

He was an exceptional artist, and was the 'Art Director' in quite a few films of the 1940's - 1960's. He is probably best known in that career as the Art Director in the iconic western, "Red River" starring John Wayne, Montgomery Cliff, Walter Brennan and other notable actors. This movie is considered by many to be the top western movie of all time. John Datu Arensma was also a prolific illustrator and artist. He was an art director and illustrator for Disney's iconic 'Bambi" animated feature, and one of his illustrations recently sold at auction this July 2021. I'm proud to have 6 of his works. He was also a set designer for live theater, including one for famous actor Buddy Ebsen! Hoping others who have knowledge of his film and entertainment career will contact me.

This photo from March 31, 1962 of John Datu Arensma was taken at the grand opening of actor Raymond Burr's Fine Art Gallery on Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills, CA,. It was displayed during a PBS "Antiques Roadshow" program from 2019, taped at the famous Hotel Del Coronado, Coronado Island, CA. I'm the proud owner of 3 of his fine paintings!!! From everything I've researched about him, he was a very gifted artist and fine gentleman. RIP, J.L. Datu. Tim Beasley - Virginia Beach, VA
