Born in Guelph, Ontario, Canada in 1889 he left at the age of 18 to go to New York City and returned to Canada during the war years. But by 1924 he established New York City as his home. While he was beginning his career as an abstract painter he was designing stages for George Bernard Shaw's "Man and Superman" and for the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall. While in the process of creating the Museum of Non-Objective Painting (later the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum), in 1939 Solomon Guggenheim and HillaRebay began to take an interest in Scarlett's work. By 1940 he became thenew museum's chief lecturer. By 1953, the Guggenheim owned nearly sixty of his paintings and monoprints.
