An article in the March 13, 1937, Puleo graduated from the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, in the 1930s. Around 1975, Puleo became an artist in residence at Lexington&Campbell House Inn. Specializing in portraits, Puleo lived in the hotel and set up a studio in the front lobby where he often painted portraits of the guests. He was famous for his paintings of Secretariat. He died in 1999.
