High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Dr. Thomas "Tom" J. Honeyman (born Glasgow 1891–1971) was the director of the Glasgow Art Gallery. Born in Glasgow, the son of engine driver Thomas Honeyman (1858–1934) and Elspeth Smith (1860–1937), Honeyman studied medicine at Glasgow prior to service in the trenches during the First World War. He practised medicine in the East End of Glasgow, before moving to London to become an art dealer. In London he met many great artists and when the Glasgow Corporation were looking for a new Director for their Kelvingrove Art Gallery they consulted Honeyman who eventually decided he might like the job. Taking up the post in 1939, he went on to make an enormous contribution to artistic and cultural life of Glasgow during his 15 years in the post. He greatly increased the profile of the Glasgow Art Galleries through clever publicity and successful exhibitions which, for example, brought queues to see Van Gogh's paintings.
