Born in Greenville, South Carolina in 1936, Sidney moved to Colorado Springs as a child before attending Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire where he received the John Larkin prize for painting in 1954.

He graduated from Princeton in 1958 and earned a Masters in Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania in 1967. After two years with a firm in Philadelphia he left the practice of architecture to paint full-time. While at Princeton, Sidney met the renowned contemporary artist, Frank Stella, then a fellow student and now a lifelong friend whom he describes as his “magnetic north” as a young painter. Sidney is recognized as an authority on Stella’s life and work since authoring Frank Stella: An Illustrated Biography (Rizzoli, 1995), begun over the course of a residency at the Hambidge Center for Creative Arts and Sciences in North Georgia. He has lived in Atlanta since the 1970s.
